Hello Michelle,
We’re delighted to hear that your gumpaste roses arrived safely and were well packaged. Thank you for your review 😊
Simply the very best, better than all the rest.
Whenever I shop with my lovely VV, I get the best. I can buy a large amount or like recently, only two items, but I always get the best of service. Oftentimes, my order arrives if not the next day, then certainly within two to three days. There has never been a time when they haven't got everything I've wanted. They're simply the very best there is.

Great company that I use regularly and always happy with the result. I ordered this time and paid extra for next day delivery, but it didn’t arrive until 3 days later. Took longer than the next day offer.

Thank you for your review 😊 We've checked your order and can confirm it was placed using our standard shipping option, with the standard £3.99 delivery charge, rather than our next day delivery service.
