The palm trees are a mix of the very common cake decorations: I think the source is link but a friend bought one of the big bags and shared a handful … and the equally inexpensive and rather fine …
from Timecast in the UK: link (scroll down to 'plastic palm trees') I picked up a pack browsing at a show … Hope that helps Thanks for the kind comments Phil |
