All 30g Split Cakes

The 30g tin is the one that fits in a kit bag without weighing it down, and it is where most of this store's character and animal designs live: TAG's Snake, Unicorn, Dolphin, Dragon and Magpie one strokes, Diamond FX's Frozen, Elsa's Magic and Cotton Candy numbered cakes, and Fusion's Rose Princess and Lodie Up Pastel Rainbow split cakes. It is also the cheapest way to try a colourway before deciding whether it earns a spot in a 50g tin.

When 30g makes more sense than 50g

• Working a market stall or a queue of quick, single-colour faces
• Carrying several colourways in one bag rather than a couple of big tins
• Trying a new brand or design before committing to more of it

Once a single colourway becomes your regular weekend booking, 50g split cakes work out more practical, since reaching for a second tin mid-queue gets old fast. Keep opened tins tidy with the containers in split cake accessories.
