Argh! Help needed!

Okay, here's the deal. I checked with Mam how many of these 2lb chocolate loaves I'm gonna need to make to feed my whole team, and she guestimated at three. So that's what I made.

Problem is, I've found I have nothing of sufficient size in which to transport them on the bus to the office tomorrow morning!

My chocolate/biscuit tins, kept especially for such items, are either not deep enough (even before I put on the buttercream icing on top) and/or will not hold two safely, let alone three!

I've even looked at my pyrex and roasting tins as possible alternatives, but the cakes are just going to be too high. And don't forget there's going to be buttercream on the top, so just wrapping in tin foil won't do....

Any suggestions? Please?

Wrap loaves in foil. Take buttercream in separate container. Put together quickly at work.

Eh viola.

That'd be my suggestion as well.

You may actually both have something there.... *ponders*

Thanks!

or if you like to get complicated lol put them in the container and put in toothpicks to keep the wrapping off the top then wrap in foil or plastic wrap. But if you have to stack that won't do.
