I find the following treats most successful:</p> <p>1.) Cake pops - easily carried decadent treats that pose little to no mess and can be decorated as "eye candy." These take in a lot of revenue.</p> <p>2.) Decorated and multi-flavored cereal treats - Rice Krispie treats with mini marshmallows or tiny chocolate chips, chocolate Rice Krispie bars drizzled in PB, Chex Mix bars, Friuity Pebble bars ....</p> <p>3.) Cookies - Nothing beats an awesome CC cookie or an amazing sugar cookie (little kids love these and parents enjoy sugar cookies are less messy than ones with CC or gooey parts)</p> <p>4.) Gluten free options - beyond Rice Krispie treats, offering one or two GF options (lemon bars, cookies, or muffins) is a sure win.</p> <p>5.) Breakfast/snack items packaged TO GO - chocolate dipped biscotti in a baggie ready to dip in one's work coffee, brownies (ANY flavor) prewrapped and ready to roll, muffins in little containers, quiche poppers prepackaged, cupcakes (labeled with flavor) ready to go, "gourmet" popcorn (parmesan, jalapeno, chocolate, bacon, etc) in baggies ... People on the go or who are headed back to work LOVE these. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857576 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 21:16:11 +0000 DesertDreams88 2857576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like others said, brownies... cheesecake brownies, peppermint brownies, pepperman oreo crunchy brownies, peanut butter brownies, caramel brownies.... fancy brownies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857569 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 20:33:57 +0000 autumnleaves 2857569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love cheesecake brownies or brownies with cream cheese.

Also, smores treats... cocoa puffs and golden grahams mixed and made like rice krispies treats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857554 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 18:35:08 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2857554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Brownies, shortbread cookies, baklava, and pound cake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857502 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 14:10:48 +0000 erinbaderin 2857502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don’t generally buy much, but my go-to yo bring to bake sales is Martha Stewart’s carrot cake cookies and they always get raves and are the first things to sell out. This year somebody thanked me in advance for making them again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857501 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 14:08:35 +0000 looch 2857501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Fudge....the kind you make with Fluff. If you layer a couple flavors, it looks super fancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857499 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 14:05:46 +0000 psw27 2857499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few unconventional things that sell super super well at our daycare bake sale (which is in a large office building so different demographic probably) are breakfast items! People love to get a blueberry muffin or a slice of banana bread to take to their desk in the AM. We also do yogurt parfaits. And people make whole banana bread loaves and coffee cakes that always sell immediately. Last year I did iced sugar cookies with royal icing and those sold super quick because they were cute (snowmen, mittens, etc.). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857497 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 14:02:30 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2857497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like things with icing, so either cupcakes or iced brownies, but those are messy so that might make me a weirdo. With anything I like things that I can plainly identify what flavor it is rather then trying to guess if something is mint or lemon or whatever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857494 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 13:52:14 +0000 SupernovaJ 2857494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cookies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857488 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 13:39:15 +0000 catgirl 2857488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I generally prefer to buy things that are not messy and can travel well - because I probably won't eat it right then and there. </p> <p>I like rice krispie treats, large brownies (fun to fix in peanut butter chips or caramel), blondies, seven layer bars, big cookies, and good dessert breads - pumpkin, banana, lemon, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bake-sales-what-do-you-like-to-buy#post-2857486 Mon, 19 Nov 2018 13:29:39 +0000 RonjaL7 2857486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rice crispy treats!
