This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to commentor #124: Cori Westphal!
Who doesn’t love a bake sale? And if you’re a parent then I’m sure you’ve participated in your share of them.
For the third year in a row, C&H Sugar is the presenting sponsor for Share our Strength: Great American Bake Sale to help fight childhood hunger. Great American Bake Sale raises money to fight childhood hunger across the U.S. by encouraging individuals, families, organizations and schools to hold bake sales and donate the profits to help Share our Strength provide millions of meals and snacks to America’s children.
Bake sales are a great way for you to spend quality time with your kids and enjoy a great snack in the process. Definitely a win-win situation!
So how do you get started? C&H Sugar has a great website with everything you need to host a bake sale, including location ideas, information on how to promote the sale, printable signs, pricing suggestions, and of course, recipes. They make it so easy for you and your family to enjoy this activity.

i like this one
Sweets on a Stick – Simply adding craft or lollipop sticks to cookies or truffles can turn them into a bake sale novelty. You’ll want to insert craft stick into cookies when they are just out of the oven. For the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles, add lollipop sticks while chocolate is still soft.

The pricing suggestions were the best advice for me.
Get the word out that you’re having a bake sale for a good cause! The week leading up to the sale, post signs on bulletin boards, send emails and post the details on your social networking sites. Going online to promote your site is a great idea since you can give a link directly to our Bake Sale Center or to Share Our Strength® for people to learn more.
On the day of your bake sale, be as festive as possible with your decorations. Low-cost attention getters like balloons, streamers, big brightly painted signs and music will draw interest. Don’t forget to have information about Share Our Strength’s Great American Bake Sale® and how proceeds from your bake sale will help to feed hungry kids.

I like this tip: Decorate Your Own Cookie – set up a table with undecorated cut-out sugar cookies along with bowls of icing, sprinkles and various candies. Using craft sticks and disposable spoons, kids (and grown-ups, too) can decorate their own sugar cookies.
The best is to have a great place to have your sale lots of people. nice giveaway thank you.

I liked the idea of decorating and being as festive as possible the day of the bake sale. Balloons and streamers (LOTS OF COLOR) certainly attract people’s attention and get them excited. A party atmosphere makes you want CAKE!
Thanks for the great contest!
