   If anyone has a number '1' cake tin they are able to sell to me please PM me!! 
 There's one on trademe, but it's $35 and I'm only going to be using it once, so if anyone has one in their cupboard collecting cobwebs I would be very grateful to buy it/loan it off you. 
 Thank you!!     |

   Do you have a shop close by that loans them out? 
 Our local shop loans them out for a few days for $5, you need to pay$10 deposit but that gets returned to you. Maybe ask around your local bakeries etc    |

   Try BJ's Cake Decor on Boundary Rd in Hamilton.  I hired a #1 for Ashleigh's first birthday, it's only $5 or so    |

   Hi Jaxnz1,
 You can make a number one from two rectangle cake tins. Use one for the upright part of the 1 and the other goes across the bottom. Cut a corner (triangle) off the upright part to make the 'sticky out' bit at the top.
 Get my drift?     |

   SMS, that's cheap! Our local one does it for $50 bond and $10 a day. 
 I'm also looking for a #1 cake tin, was going to do something more 'fancy' but have changed my mind!
