All sold out!

Some photos from my stall on Saturday at Deanesfield School, Ruislip.
When I run stalls I always have the worry of how much shall I make... to little and I sell out early on and could have sold more.... too much and I am left with perishable stock. Well I seemed to judge it right this time :-) and had just the right amount. Though I could have done with some more of the flake, Oreo and toffee cupcakes as they sold out quite early on.

So for those of you who are not sure how much stock to make, here is a guide, for a 4 hour stall at a school fair I sold
32 slices of Victoria sandwich
48 slices of carrot cake
17 Lemon drizzle
50 cake pops
49 cupcakes.

Though I could have sold 100 cupcakes

Next stall is at the Tudor Lodge Hotel in Eastcote on the 24th July. 2pm -5pm. If you are local pop along and see us :-)

Flake, Oreo and fudge cupcakes, these were my best sellers on Saturday, and sold really well on fathers day this year.

Cake pops, made these a few times before but this is the first time I have sold them on a stall. They went down really well. Big thanks to bakerella and there amazing book, full of inspiration, I need to get more adventurous with them next time!!!

Ladies who latte

Went to my first 'neworking' group today. Ladies who latte.
http://www.ladieswholatte.com/changeprofile/View_profile.php?profileid=2630
Met some really intresting women, all who are very passionate about their businesses. It was great to get out the house for a bit, and to talk to some grown ups!
I have been wanting to start a blog for a while but never got round to it, after speaking to some of the lovely ladies today who have them and enjoy writing them I thought I would give it a go.
Been working on my new site all evening. I have bought a domain name :-) will let you know what it is when I have finished crossing all the t's and dotting all the i's!

New to blogging!

I have finally entered the world of blogging!!!

Been designing my new website today which will run along side my current site http://www.karlis-cakes.co.uk/  and thought it a good idea to start a blog to go along side it, so here I am!!
 The new site is just for my wedding cakes, as I would like to keep them slightly seperate to my current site. I have nearly finished it just need to purchase a domain name to go with it ... any ideas???..............
