I have run bake sales in the past for this same club, and I do have the stats for them; but I'm always looking for new ideas. biggrin And possibly some tips.
(Also, I'm in college.)
If you've run bake sales, what sold really well?
My only option to bring cupcakes is me getting a cupcake case, isn't it? >_>
If you haven't run bake sales, what would you expect to see at a bake sale? What wouldn't you expect to see, and you'd be really happy to see and would totally buy? (For reference, our prices are normally 75 cents to $1)
For a normal-sized cupcake, what would you be willing to pay?
GLUTEN-FREE OPTIONS: If you have to follow a gluten-free diet, what would you like? I've seen a few things here & there that I'm totally capable of making, but there's no point if no one's gonna buy it. I'd prefer to be able to make it from scratch. The mixes at the store seem pretty pricey for something there's a small market for, but there is a market for.

My bake sale experience here:
We did pretty well and generally made around at least $50ish per bake sale, which is kinda...low. I'm at a commuter school, so it's a bit hard sometimes.
Aside from that, the one things that sold amazingly ALWAYS
ALWAYSSSSS
were cupcakes.
Provided they were "normal" cupcakes. My red velvet cupcakes sold like a dream. biggrin
Cookies usually sold, but that always varied. I plan on making peanut butter cookies and double chocolate cookies, to help with "I WANT PB" or "I WANT CHOCOLATE" people. >_>
