"Very tricky to build" star star star_border star_border star_border Fun to make but very tricky to assemble. The hips and shoulders were too weak when put together so Flumpie managed to stand for about 3 minutes before collapsing in pieces! support_agent A note from the team We’re very sorry to hear this and will be in touch shortly to sort this for you. We’d suggest using a strong biscuit recipe and rolling a little thicker to strengthen key areas, also allowing to cool fully before attempting building together.
"Terrible execution of a great idea" star star_border star_border star_border star_border I have just bought this to make a present for an elephant loving friend- it is terrible. I floured the dough and put it in the fridge and used a dough that i use regularly but because all of the cutters are joined in one tray I found the dough stuck between the shapes and when you pull the cutter off you miss-shape the small details. I don’t know why this wasn’t designed to be a number of cutters. This would be so much easier and better. Very disappointed in what could be a great product support_agent A note from the team You could try dipping the cutter in flour each time before pressing it into the dough to minimize sticking. You could also use a chopstick to gently push out the dough to help stop it becoming misshapen.
"A bit tricky but fun" star star star star_border star_border The cutter was relatively easy to use, but the pieces needed to be carefully trimmed after baking to put them together. A suggested recipe for the biscuit base would have been useful as getting a firm enough mix was a bit tricky. May be a useful distraction item at the moment! support_agent A note from the team Thank you for placing your review. Try chilling the dough in the fridge before rolling, and flour the cutter well before using to give better shapes.

"Fun & Different" star star star star_border star_border You need to follow instructions carefully as can be a little tricky. Let the pieces firm on the tray a little before moving onto a cooling tray. I found them awkward to put together, but my hands are not the best! Look very effective when done, I think the grandchildren will love them. support_agent A note from the team This review has been written by a mylakeland club member who received a free product sample from us, along with a request for their honest opinion, good or bad, because our customers’ feedback is invaluable to us in building our range.
"Elephant crumbs" star star_border star_border star_border star_border Over the years I have purchased many many Lakeland products which I have found both useful and interesting. This however is not one of them. Despite trimming after the biscuits came out of the oven crumbs ensued. I will not be purchasing the other animals in the series. It’s a good job that the family like biscuits of all shapes and sizes. If I could give zero stars I would. I have since returned his product for a refund, something I thought I would n very have to do in Lakeland. support_agent A note from the team We suggest using a strong biscuit mix and allowing to cool before assembling the pieces, but we're sorry this proved difficult.
