My church is having a bake sale/cookie walk, and of course i'd like to donate a few items.
What have you baked or bought from a bake sale that got good reviews...
Cakes (size, type?)
Cookies (standard, Christmas, decorated?)
Cupcakes
or what??
Love to hear all of your input! Thanks as usual!
Peanut butter marshmallow squares........brownies....
If you meant how to make them....
Peanut butter marshmallow squares
melt in microwave 1 pkg butterscotch chips
after melted add 1 1/2 C peanut butter(smooth)
add one pkg coloured mini marshmallows
put in 9x13 pan and let set in fridge...
everyone I know loves these...
You're on the right track with the 6" size...no one seems to buy anything much larger than that. I made a 10" cake once for a bake sale but everyone who considered it chose not to buy it because "it's sooo big" "how are we gonna eat all that" "I'm on a diet & that'd be too much temptation", etc! lol But the 6" cakes all sold! And they were decorated but simple...can't fit too much on a cake that size. So the smaller the better! ('Cause if it doesn't sell, it might just come back to your house! lol) I'd decorate them with themes of the season....fall leaves, turkeys, pilgrims, etc. And try to do the same with some of your flavors...spice cake, carrot cake, chocolate!! yummmm 
Or you could just keep decorations super simple (so you can make more cakes more easily) and just do your icing & piping in fall colors...browns, ambers, oranges, yellows, reds...with maybe a few words piped on like "Happy Fall!", "Turkey Day's coming!", "Happy Thanksgiving!", "Fall Is Here!", etc.
Hope this helps! 
Last spring our church youth group had a fundraiser bake sale and I baked a bunch of 6" cakes and decorated them all more or less the same, just in different colors.
To save on packaging cost, I put them on plastic throw-away plates in bright colors and slipped them inside a larger zip-lock bag. Before I put them in the bag, I labeled each bag with a permanent marker, so they would know the flavor of the cake and the icing.
From what I heard, they went over quite well.
not sure if your bake sale has already taken place but I recently did one and these were the top sellers
Peanut Butter Cookies
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Rice Crispies Treats
Brownies
I didn't try cupcakes. I made muffins but they didn't sell well since I wasn't serving coffee. You can make a killing if you took a couple coffee pots and brewed coffee while selling your goods. You will triple your sale. Guaranteed!
Chess squares - I've never made them that they weren't eaten in the first few minutes!
I made a whole bunch of 4" cakes for a bake sale last year that I put together at work for my MS Walk. I got AWESOME responses from them and actually that's how I got my work out there for people in the office!!
