Asslinn Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 So for some silly reason I have agreed into getting a stall at my son's school fair so I can sell my cupcakes, I am totally bricking it. I'm scared all the cakes will still be sat there after the four hours. The only positive I can think off atm is I can try out my new flavours, and I'm being put next to the BBQ and beer tent, so if it goes belly up I could eat myself into a coma ( although I'm still unable to eat solid food) or I could get drunk lol. So come Friday night I will be baking 200-250 cakes! Wish me luck I'm gonna need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asslinn Posted July 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Well today is the day! I've have been baking and decorating all night. I have 264 cupcakes, I'm hoping they sell and I don't have to bring loads home. The only worry I have at the moment is the heat we should be getting, It could melt my buttercream lol The flavours are: Vanilla cake with Vanilla buttercream Vanilla with Vanilla and honeycomb buttercream Vanilla with Raspberry jam and vanilla buttercream Vanilla with Cherry buttercream Vanilla with oreo cookie in the cake with Cookies and cream buttercream Vanilla with Lindt Lindor(in the center of the cake) and chocolate buttercream Vanilla with strawberry and kiwi buttercream Chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream Chocolate with Cherry buttercream Chocolate with banana buttercream Chocolate with pineapple buttercream Here's a photo of them all boxed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goingsolo Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 How long did it take to sell them all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asslinn Posted July 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 How long did it take to sell them all? I didn't sell them all there was another stall that reallllly undercut my price although their cakes were thrown on the floor half eaten. But once I reduced the price they were sold in boxes of 6-10 and people loved them none got thrown away lol. They just didn't want to spend £1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
