Cheers folks.
Those look amazing Ouch-Kabibble- unfortunately I just know without even enquiring that they will be way out of my price range :(

I did manage to get 4 limes at a reasonable price actually, from eBay, so success there.
My experiments with molding were a total loss, although I'm still tempted to try the banana...! Is there still no one who would be interested in one for £5?

Regarding the olives, I think I'm going to buy some fake plastic grapes, paint them, cut a hole in and stuff in a piece of red sponge ball. I'm never going to need a whole bunch worth though so again, if anyone does jiggernaut and wants a few olives (I'll post some picks of the finished product when I get around to it), let me know.

I know they're not latex, but last time I was in Davenports they were selling a set of sponge bananas which looked like they would compress nicely.
They were all different sizes and I tihnk it was around a tenner. Not sure if this is of any help.

I know ideally you were after latex fruit but on Dude That's Cool Magic's website they are selling a foam Club Sandwich, a foam Hotdog and a foam brick!!
