    Thanks for the tips!
    How I've been working my business is, I post a menú on Monday for pre-order, that will be ready for pickup on Wednesday. This way I can use from Thursday to Saturday to prepare for event cakes, that are usually held on the weekends. Gives me Doble income and the smaller pre-order items get people motivated to taste my stuff and are more likely to order from me when they need cakes and pastries for parties and events, cuz I've already got them hooked on my treats 💖

    I listen to you while baking, keeps me company! 😍 I'm a seasoned cookier, trying to wrap my head around your concept. Great idea. I offer preordering for major holidays. However, I think it would also work great for those just starting out to build an audience. I do a mixture of corporate and private custom orders which brings in a lot of $. Me scaling back to specific sets probably wouldn't work for my brand.

      Even though I'm an Acting Teacher... I want to re open my Acting Studio and to do that I have to also re open my little food truck... but I really want to do Desserts...
      (A LOT OF WORK to just make a living) LOL
      I was told to have a home bakery and have POP UPs...
      I just don't know how much money I can make on my Cup Cakes etc...
      I don't even know how to charge... or how much to charge anymore since price of food has gone up so much.

    VERY informative! You gave some excellent ideas for increasing revenue. I love to teach so I think that's an avenue I am going to take. I've already planned to not take custom orders for my decorated sugar cookies and will offer sets of 4 designs per dozen. Cake pops will be offered the same way. As far as cakes go, I think that I will create a bunch of dummy cakes for customers to choose from for their celebration. Thanks for planting several seeds.

You can even host your own at your home, a friends home etc. Just be sure to check restrictions for the neighborhoods.

      @TheStationBakery  2 года назад +3

      Aww thank you! I’m glad I can help! As far as how much of each item to make, there are a couple of things you can do. You can contact the organizer to see how much traffic they expect or usually get. If it’s a market, you can visit one weekend to get a feel of what the traffic is like. Then consider that most people will want individual items or small packs. What are your best sellers? Bring more of those and then adjust after you start selling. There’s more but I can only type so much 🥲
