What is your favourite Cake Stall treat?, .

Guest_Retro_Mumma_*	06/04/2012, 10:09 AM Post #1


What is your favourite thing to buy from Cake Stalls? How much would you pay for them? Would you pay a little bit more (like 50 cents more) if you knew it was for a childrens charity? This post has been edited by Retro_Mumma: 21/06/2012, 12:00 PM

Russian caramels or cupcakes (butterfly or passion fruit icing) I would pay about 50c - $1

QUOTE (BessMarvin @ 06/04/2012, 10:13 AM) Coconut ice and chocolate fudge. $3.50 to $5 depending on the serving size. If you had a donation tin on the table, my change would end up in there Ripper idea, hadnt thought of that. Thank you

A yummy home made slice is always good. Something I can eat on the spot. Anything made with reasonable quality chocolate and ingredients yum! I might not pay more but I'd be inclined to buy more if it were for charity.depends on your pricing. Oh and taste testers are a sure way of getting me to buy from you so if you can have samples I would. This post has been edited by Chelara: 06/04/2012, 10:25 AM

Cupcakes, brownies, fudge and caramel popcorn in bags-easy stuff you can eat whilst walking around really. I wouldn't pay anything more than usual if the money was going to a children's charity, I don't believe children's charities are more worthy than any other cause. All are equal to me This post has been edited by Pinky Bee: 06/04/2012, 10:34 AM

Jam drops and I second the idea for the tin on the table especially if its clearly labeled and if you had flyers about, stating what the charity does.

Fudge. And depending on the charity, yes I would be happy to pay a little bit more

Toffee. (like THESE) Last time I bought some it was $3 for a tray of 6 mini ones. If you are interested, I have a list of school fete recipes HERE.

I prefer biscuits, slices, sweets and dense cakes made from good quality ingredients. I'm a huge fan of the cake stall but so many people just make rubbish that it largely ends up in the bin with me not returning. I find lighter cakes such as butter cakes, cupcakes, sponges, lamingtons and scones are always stale from cake stalls. I even purchased a banana bread recently that the woman raved about as it was her mothers recipe. Got home and tucked in and it tasted a week old
