✨ Mini Story / Hook

A beautiful example of mid-century British kitchenware, this Tala Icing Set captures the optimism and domestic pride of post-war home baking. Complete with its original illustrated box and charming fold-out instruction leaflet, this set was designed to help home cooks create celebration cakes, wedding tiers, and decorative borders with confidence and flair.

Tala was a trusted household name across Britain, Australia, and beyond — and sets like this were often wedding gifts or prized baking tools brought out for special occasions. Today, it’s a wonderful piece for collectors of vintage kitchenalia, home bakers who appreciate heritage tools, or anyone drawn to nostalgic packaging and graphic design.
