Selling cupcakes at the mall... Would you buy a delicious cupcake?!
I want to own a bakery that makes cakes and cupcakes!. I've decided that in light of the recent economy and the fact that it might be difficult for me to get a business loan anytime soon!.!.!. I thought of making a kiosk at the mall which would sell some tasty cupcakes (with lots of frosting) and some do-it-yourself toppings, and have a cake design book along with some display cakes so people could order cakes from me!. Do you think that you would enjoy a delicious cupcake at the mall or let your kids do it!.!.!. or would you order a cake from a kiosk if you could see examples of the cakes!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
You could not make the cupcakes at home, that is true!. However, there are commercial kitchens you could rent space at!. San Francisco has some, and I am sure there is space available in other cities as well!. You do need a plan, but right now you have a dream!.!.!.!.don't let it die, figure out how to make it happen!. Test your products out so you know they are the best!. Use the best ingredients and be consistent!. Know what you are going to sell, and really know it!. I do not think I would go beyond cupcakes and cakes!. You cannot offer everything! also, the mall may limit what you are able to sell!. You may be competing with a coffee shop or something, so you need to think about that too!. Lately Martha and Oprah had programs with cupcakes, and they were successful with good products priced right!. If our mall had a cupcake kiosk that I could buy fresh, really yummy cupcakes, I certainly would buy some, AND I would come back! I love the idea of cupcakes, and they are a great product that is here to stay!.
Again, make sure your products are the best!. How can you make them and get them to a profitable market!? How can you take it from a kiosk to a bakery of your own!? Good luck! Hope to see you in our mall soon!Www@FoodAQ@Com

i dunno about cupcakes but muffins, cookies, rice crispy treats, or brownies sound good!. Something you can smell!.
Chocalate chip cookies, banana muffins, brownies
I would start off small then try at the mall!.
You would need a business plan!. What are your expenses!?
rent, baking supplies, oven, packaging material, promotion, etcWww@FoodAQ@Com

Oh most definitely!. If it was a nice kiosk!. A lot of them have people that aren't exactly very nice!. You could have one kinda like the verizon kiosks or the dippin dots kiosk!. And eventually move to the food court and have a kiosk, then you could earn enough money to open an actual bakery!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Think you need to plan this out a bit!. Almost all cities states have extensive regulations on preparation of food that is for sale to the public!. Usually requires inspection of kitchen, and a home kitchen cannot pass!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
The only way that I would by some kind of cake from a mall kiosk would be if it came pre packaged!. You would have to have your own bakery in order for me to buy fresh baked goods from you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
i'd definitely have a cup cake if you had some coffee to go with itWww@FoodAQ@Com
