Hi Kerryn. Basically toilet rolls are used because they are a hollow tube already eliminating that step in the cracker making process. You can easily make your own tubes by using card stock wrapped around a tube shape and taped closed, then removing the tube shape leaving you with a hollow tube of card stock.I make miniature crackers using a small glue stick as a template for my card stock tubes then tissue paper and ribbon to complete the crackers and embellish them with Christmas motifs. Hope this helps.

Hi Kerryn. The other things you can use are gladwrap and alfoil rolls. Just cut to the size you want. Cheers Karen O'Donohue
I just renewed my membership. Couldn't be without the brilliant info and activities you supply to do my job with satisfaction. The resources are brilliant and made my job easier, more fun and so much more interesting. I work at a day centre for the elderly and they love all the ideas. Many thanks!
Spotlight sell the tubes that you are looking for they come in packs of 6-8 and are reasonably priced
