For Those Of You Who Sell At Farmer's Markets

How far in advance do you start baking? This will be my first time selling at a Farmer's Market this summer and I want to make sure that the items I sell are fresh, but also don't want to try and bake everything early the morning of and possibly not finish everything. I plan on selling cupcakes, cookies, muffins, scones, quick breads and a couple of other things. TIA!
If your recipes freeze well (most cupcakes, muffins, and breads should) then you can easily bake weeks in advance. Just do a trial run with freezing/unfreezing so you have a process down that preserves the quality of the products.
Thank you, MimiFix for the tip! I have never tried refrigerating my batters before, but I may do a trial run with them to see if they produce the same results.
Thank you, Jason_Kraft also for the tip about freezing ahead of time. I have frozen cakes before, but not cupcakes so I am going to freeze some and see how they turn out.
