What Else Can I Offer Than Just Cakes?
Business By Kiddiekakes Updated 2 Sep 2010 , 5:29pm by dchockeyguy
I want to try and expand a little and offer more than just custom cakes.By that I mean...do some of you offer squares,fruit baskets etc..I have sugar cookies but I rarely get orders for them as I have raised the price (Very Time consuming) and I am not selling them for cheap when they take hours to do..I am okay with no orders for them though as I don't really enjoy decorating cookies...
So my question is what other edibles can a person offer which are easy to make ...don't requre expensive ingredients and don't take hours to make?
Thanks 
Fruit tarts are a good option, we sell a decent amount (mostly mini fruit tarts). They are pretty easy to make, and fruit is usually a good price at Costco.
I also offer drop cookies - choco chip, snickerdoodle, sugar cookies (no decorations), peanut butter etc...
Brownies (i use a family scratch recipe)
Rice krispy treats - these are my next biggest seller after cakes, and they are SOOOO O easy. I use a large roasting pan on my stove top over a couple of burners and I can do a quadrouple batch of ricekrispies at once. I then put them in a 12x18x2 pan and let cool for 1/2 an hour. I turn the pan over onto a cutting board and cut the treats to size. During the holidays i form them in the wilton comfort grip cookie cutters and even color the marshmallows.
How much do you sell rice krispies treats for? We sell vegan (marshmallow-free) RK treats for $12/dozen and gluten-free for $18/dozen. Only a few people have ordered them though.

I assume you also do cupcakes, right? Brownies are a good choice, as are truffles. I love making truffles.
