My stall


Well from the millions of posts updating my progress with the upcoming Rocklea Markets, 12 hours of baking and a hectic start after sleeping in, I have finally been to Rocklea Markets to sell my cupcakes!

My stall was a lot more successful than I thought it would be! Out of the 520 cupcakes I had made, I had sold just over 450.. leaving mostly the extra vanilla vanilla cupcakes for my housemates to devour.

I was aiming to make a few different types of cupcakes but it was touch and go. I was selling -

There were a few ups and downs from working so hard, but I'm definitely doing this again soon! As I was so busy, I forgot to take photos. But here is what I did take.

  1. Your cupcakes were delicious. My favourite has to be the Devils Food Cupcakes with Dulce De Leche Frosting. I have one left over, just for dessert!

  5. Hi! I'm just wondering if you would mind giving any advice on your market-selling adventure! I'm planning on doing the same sort of thing at another market, but I'm just wondering how many did you bake/ how much did you sell for and also how did you transport everything? Any advice would be so very very very much appreciated!!
