Need some ideas for a movie theme for a bake sale. Any suggestions?

Question

We're having a bake sale but it has to be "themed" and it has to revolve around a movie.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Answer 1

I'd say go with a classic movie like Wizard of Oz-you could sell "Auntie Em's Brownies"(just regular batches of brownies), "Dorothy's Ruby Slippers Sugar Cookies" (shoe-shaped sugar cookies with red icing and a sprinkling of red sugar for sparkle), "Cowardly Lion Cupcakes" (reg. cupcakes decorated with a lion's face), "Yellow Brick Road Mix" (trail mix sold in sandwhich baggies), or maybe "Wicked Witch's Sludge" (fudge) Set up the items for sale on a green table cloth and decorate with signs that say "Emerald City Bake Sale" etc.Don't forget, those selling the items could dress up as characters!...Just a few suggestions...

Really I think you could use any movie with seveal memorable characters and make this idea work....best of luck to you!

I love it!! I lvoe the idea of a popcorn machine, you could also have a candy bar whihc is the new thing lately. Basically you would have various candies in bowls etc and people could package their own candy. Maybe personalize the bags and there is your favor and dessert!! I think naming the tables is a great idea! I would definitely stay away from disaster movies, like Titantic. Titanic is used to describe all kinds of disasters and I am sure your wedding won't be one!! Decorate each table with things from the movie it is named for! You could also design the place cards like movie tickets. You can have guests sing a movie theme song if they want you to kiss lol that would be great! Some suggestions: Breakfast At Tiffany's Casablanca Gone With The Wind Roman Holiday Pretty Woman From Here to Eternity Meet Me In St Louis Love Story White Cliffs of Dover Jerry Maguire Sleepless in Seattle Legally Blonde An American President wedding themed movies: Sweet Home Alabama The Wedding Planner Jersey Girl My Big Fat Greek Wedding Four Weddings and a Funeral American Wedding Runaway Bride The Wedding Singer My Best Friends Wedding Betsy's Wedding That Old Feeling Good luck, it's a great theme!

I recommend Babette's feast. It's a beautiful, capturing movie, about life's simple pleasures such as cooking and eating good food. The movie has been awarded with the Oscar for the best foreign language film.

I recently bought some bug shaped cookies at the grocery store. They are really cute. You could use them as a theme for A Bugs Life. If you want to make cookies yourself there are many different shaped cookie cutters you can purchase.

car: Herby the love bug
crown: Cinderella
