People love the idea - KIDS go nuts looking at the pictures and when I explain they are cakes to make in the micro the kids all want to do it!
Had a Mom come to me 7 times to get 6, she had to keep loosing her son at the show LOL
I sold 20- some Thanksgiving but mostly Christmas (also sold for my other assortedBiz's too) I sold them at $6 each or 2 for $10 (sorta cuts my proffits BUT gets my name-have reorder stickers on the back-AND the cakes out there!)
I use the little plastic and metal plate easels- got at Deals, Walmart, Micheals to stand the cakes up so the pictures can be seen, had one opened so contents could be seen - explained to all who looked "Everything you need to make a cake in the micro, just add water !"
Had some other cakes avail too - Birthday, Support our troops, Red Hat sold some of these also Guess there were about 50 cakes on display , give or take
Good Luck with the show, post back on how you do!
