With back to school comes bake sales and fundraisers. When my youngest was in elementary school I baked many cookies and brownies for her school bake sales or fundraisers.

I decided to take this raspberry brownie to the next level and add a layer of raspberry flavored cheesecake to the center. {Scrollย down to find the recipe.}
School Bake Sales & Fundraisers
Brownies are bake sale bestsellers in my experience. I've learned a few things over the years and these tips will help make your bake sale a success.
Bake Sale Tips
- Pre-package your bake sale items: Individually wrap your brownies or cookies in plastic wrap or a plastic bag. Avoid aluminum foil. It hides your baked goods.
- Pricing: Add a sticker to each package with the price. I appreciate seeing the price without having to ask.
- Price items at a dollar. Everyone usually has a dollar in their pocket. Four cookies for a dollar or a large brownie or two small brownies for a dollar is reasonably priced.
Make brownies. They always sell out. The richer and yummier looking the better.
Have a stack of napkins available.
