Everyone benefits from a back-to-school bake sale: Kids get to make yummy treats with their parents then have the fun of acting as vendor. These tasty treats are perfect for a bake sale; they’re kid-size and easy to eat anywhere. Many are also peanut-free to reduce the chance of an allergic reaction. Homemade items sell faster and baking at home offers opportunities for kids to help. Parents are always busy, so be sure to welcome store-bought goods as well. If you want to ensure a tasty palette of choices, plan general categories. Be sure to include nut-free and gluten-free options for customers with food allergies and healthy choices for those avoiding sweets. Besides cakes, you can make delicious cute little cupcakes with the help of cupcake decorations. Cupcake decorations are usually in great demand for parties and will fly off the tray at a bake sale.

Bright colours and prints will do the trick. At your next bake sale, cover the table with these mini pastries and stunning decorations, and we promise you will sell out!
