We have just taken delivery of a few items supplied by UK suppliers that we had run out of. One of the items back in stock are the Ice Fountains.
These are a great firework for use on cakes (birthday, wedding, anniversary etc). They last around a minute each and produce a shower of sparks around 12" tall. They are easy to light (unlike sparklers which always prove quite difficult) and leave little if any debris on the cake, so the cake is quite edible after the fountains have finished.
We have placed our first order for the coming bonfire/new year season but no new lines yet. The first of the UK importers brochures has dropped through the door (Fireworks International). They are introducing a new range of large cakes around the £100 mark. I'm not sure if they are going to sell in large numbers as it is quite an area of the market that is already awash with products. They do have a new little double break rocket though and that should sell well. As always with new products though, you are never quite sure what you are going to get until you open the container doors and go and let one off.
We're off to Spring Fair next week but two of our largest UK suppliers are no longer exhibiting there so limited opportunities there for us.
