Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to the Firebox Gift Awards of 2009. Please adjust your bow ties and slip on your Jimmy Choo as we're about to read the results.

It seems our customers loved The Slanket and who can blame them in this weather. Click here for more results.

Thanks to everyone that voted. See you next year!

We Made a Snowman!

A couple of Aussie Fireboxers made their first EVER snowman today! His name's Frank and he's very happy to meet you! If you're feeling as cold as Frank's strangely segmented body, why not look at our top Firebox products to help you Beat the Freeze! (What's that? You can't operate the mouse with mere twigs for arms?)

Mont Ventoux Giant Cupcake mmm...

Can you tell we love cake here at firebox! This ingenious bit of birthday cake sculpturing was made for a cycle obsessive Fireboxer. Complete with chocolate pathways, tribute sign to Tommy Simpson and of course fireboxer cyclists!

This victorian sponge cake was made using the Giant Cupcake Tin, be prepared to supersize your ingredients though - at least 8 eggs were used!

Right Ol' Cockney Knees Up

Yesterday Firebox supported a right ol' cockney knees up at Bethnal Green working Men's Club. The 'Big Bad Christmas Bonanza' had bands, Santa’s grotto, and a designer raffle in aid of the Pearly Kings and Queens charity, as well as all type of crafts, vintage and arts.

The pearly queens were on top form, singing the old Chas & Dave hits. We even had time to fit in a couple of mulled wine's whilst raffling off some Firebox gifts!

Congratulations to Jen Holland, Aimee Valentine Marshall and Harriet Barford who made the day run smoothly.
