Tips for a Successful Bake Sale

Bake your best recipe. If it's your specialty and you make it often, you know it will turn out well.

Select recipes that yield treats that are not too fussy and are very portable. Your baked goods may do some traveling before they are eaten.

Variety is important. Ask participants to list what they intend to bring so there is an assortment of cakes, candy, cookies, pies, and breads.

Cookies are always a hot seller, particularly favorites like peanut butter, chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin. These can be packaged any number of ways. Two monster-sized cookies can be bundled together, a dozen can be displayed to sell individually or try bags of tiny bite-sized cookies.

Always cool cookies completely before packaging them.

Consider including the recipe with the baked good – even if it is an old family secret!

Ingredients are important. Ask bakers to provide a list of ingredients for each baked item. Have this information available if a buyer has a concern about a specific ingredient such as nuts.

Presentation makes a difference. Baked goods with ribbon, bows or inexpensive baskets sell faster. Since many bake sale items are given as gifts, consider attaching a personalized gift label.
