to (re)start my cake business.
First, I'm donating a basket with cake goodies to my Cub Scout Pack for a raffle. Of course, my contact info and catalog will be in there.
Second,same Cub Scout Pack will probably do a fundraiser. It's a good deal for them, and different.
Springbrings all the town street/craft fairs, I'll bring in a bunch of stock and get a table. I know thesecakes will sell, so I know I'll make my investment back.
Web site. I'll do the company website, make my friends and family buy cakes. And I figure the web site will be good for re-orders after the fundraisers, craft fairs, and raffle. I don't network too much on the web like I used to, the website will be more forconvenience.

Tina....thanks for the post. I see you have sold the greeting cakes before and are rejoining. Assuming you work this as a business, and it looks like you are, what type of dollar return have you seen or plan on seeing. Could you PM me I have a few other questions. LW Edited by: ndwillow

This cake seems to be great. I think you've given much effort on it. Wish you can establish yourself as a good baker. Best of luck
