Hey everyone! The bake sale is on Saturday, and this is all the 411 for you, please read!
Please bring your goodies by Sarah’s Place (533 Pandora Ave) around 11:30am on Saturday. Later is fine as well, tho we’d prefer the majority by noon. If you cannot make to it Sarah’s Place on Saturday, you can drop off at Dave’s place on Friday – I’m near the Thrifty’s in Fairfield.
Ingredients Listing – please be sure to write up a list of all ingredients! Consider sharing your recipe as well. (Very important for people with allergies. Frustrating seeing something that *might* be fine, but not knowing!)
Pricing – no need to list a price, all items will be ‘By Donation’.
Fun Item Names – don’t be shy, have some fun naming your goodies, and feel free to draw or create a graphic! There may be a prize for most creative!
Cupcake Alert – I’m amazed, so far only ONE PERSON has offered cup cakes!!?? What’s going on? We need more cup cakes, stat!!!
Baking Tips – HERE are some tips for vegan baking, and also watch out for ‘secret’ animal products, such as whey, casein, honey, gelatin, etc..
Containers & Presentation – hopefully you can come back later to pick up your container, but if not, we’ll hold onto for you, PLEASE LABEL WITH YOUR NAME IF YOU WANT IT BACK!! Also, ideally baked goods should be easy to walk off with, with just a napkin or in a paper bag. (If your name isn’t on your container, we’re not responsible if it goes missing..sorry!)
Confirm What You’re Bringing – please let Dave know if you haven’t already, we haven’t heard from a number of people and are a little worried!
Volunteers – 1-2 people needed to oversee the Raffle portion, and another 1-2 for the event itself, email Dave if you can help and want to hang out and chat with people! Also, Dave need help transporting supplies, prizes, etc.. Is anyone in the Fairfield area driving that can help out? Email Dave if you can help.
Raffle – As a thank-you, all bakers will receive a ticket into the raffle – lots of great prizes this year!
Let us know if you have any questions or concerns, otherwise we’ll see you Saturday morning.
Again: THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! It’s so great to have you showing off how good vegan food is, and setting such amazing examples, as well as enabling us to organize the Victoria Vegan Festival. =)
