Me and My Bird Food Making Kit

Tweetie Treats takes advantage of the current popularity of cupcakes and then combines the elegance of these teatime delicacies with an ingenious way to feed the birds. Trendy, innovative and easy, Tweetie Treats ticks all the boxes for all age groups and is a delightful way to spend an afternoon with the kids or grandchildren and it helps feed the birds too, its simply Childs play.
The idea was to involve children in a creative ‘baking’ session in the kitchen, where the result is not just attractive, but hugely beneficial for the garden birds. It’s simple to use and a great way to inspire the little ones to feed the birds.

The kit contains everything you need to create your very own cupcakes with a difference. It’s all made from wild bird food and it doesn’t even need baking. You mix the birdseed with the magic mix, add water, push it into the pretty blue, pink and yellow cupcake cases, decorate with rice paper flowers, allow to dry and it’s ready to serve to your adoring feathered friends. Plus there are animal moulds to make hanging seed shapes and a pre-drilled feed log that you can fill with ‘cake’ mix too. There’s even a wooden spoon and mixing bowl included.

It’s ideal for those that feed the birds, perfect for anyone looking for a unique and innovative gift and fantastic for young gardeners and wildlife fans, all in one rustic box of goodies.
