Bake sale recipes please. I volunteered to bring very saleable goodies but I have no ideas.?

Question

Also how to package them so they look inviting.

Answer 1

Everybody loves cupcakes these days. If you wnat to attract the kids, decorate them with an ice cream cone hat, some candy eyes and noses colourful icing for hair and you have clown cakes. An idea for the adults might be tea biscuits or scones. Potato bannock is a favorite in our house. Cut 1/4 cup of shortening (cold) into 2 1/2 cups flour, 2 tblsp baking powder 2 tblsp sugar 1 tsp salt. When it is coasre and crumbly stir in 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of cold mashed potaotes. Knead gently 8-10 times just to get it together. Formit into a circle on an ungreased cookie sheet. about 1 1/2 inces think. Divide it by slicing dough into triangular serving pieces only about a 1/4 inch throughtthe dough though. Brush it with a bit of milk or cream to help it brown and bake it at 450 for 15/20mins When it's golden colour it's ready....you could sell it as a whole or in individual wrapped pieces. Great as a replacement to bread at supper or with a cup of tea!

Answer 2

Brownies are always a hit at our school bake sales. And you can never go wrong with chocolate chips cookies either. Just buy a mix for the brownies and use the toll house cookie recipe off the bag of nestle chocolate chips.

I like to wrap in the colored saran wraps. Twist the wrap at the top and tie it with some curling ribbon, curling the ends. That makes an attractive but inexpensive wrapping.

Answer 3

Whatever you make, keep in mind that it should be quick, easy, and inexpensive because you are trying to make money too. Basic ideas are cupcakes, cookies, and breads.

Maybe an ice cream social? It's weather appropriate, could be very profitable, and people can customize their treat according to their own tastes. Not terribly expensive either.

I am a Pampered Chef consultant, and we've got lots of baked goods recipes on our main website. I've included one below that seems simple enough and doesn't include a lot of ingredients. As far as presentation, make treats fun with different shapes using Creative Cutters or Cookie Press.

Magic Cookie Bars--follow the link below or find the recipe listed on the back of a can of Eagle Condensed Sweetened milk. The ingredients are: chocolate chips, graham cracker crumbs, butter, coconut, sweetened condensed milk. You layer the ingredients & bake. They will disappear!
I recommend packaging them in color Saran Wrap like red, or sometimes you can find Saran Wrap with neat designs at the grocery store.

Answer 5

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aNBlR

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Just buy some mixes, like brownie mix, and bake them up. Buy some colored seran wrap or some Chinet paperplates (both, preferrably) and then put them on the plate. Wrap the seran wrap around it so it's bunched up. It should loook like this:

Answer 8

Everyone makes cookies or brownies, however some people like to try something different.

Might I recommend this recipe, I've made it for my little brother and sent it to him when he was in basic training. He was everyone's hero for sharing!

http://www.chex.com/Recipes/RecipeView.aspx?RecipeId=19919&CategoryId=342

Also look at some of the other recipes on that site... http://www.chex.com/default.aspx that should give you a good springboard from which to work from.

As for packaging them so they look inviting...use colored Saran Wrap in squares, then pull all the corners together and tie together with a contrasting (or coordinating color, depending on your preference) ribbon.

Above all else......have fun!

Good luck to you!

Answer 9

Just buy dough at the grocery store and bake (all you need to do is follow the directions on the wrapper, and buy some brownie/muffin/cake mix (directions on the back/side panel). Then pack them with colored wrapping, with cute ribbons on top. Another way would be to stack them up like pyramids. Or you could put them in cute little baskets with ribbons on the top, and you could use that fake grass, too!
