Bertha,
We are considering Little Caesar's for our Orchestra Parents Association (high school). How did you think that fundraiser worked? How many kids did you have selling?
Heads up about cookie dough. Does anybody realize that Innisbrook has a gourmet cookie program? We used them last spring and it was great. We also do catalog sales with them in fall. Cookies are pre portioned and they'll also have pie, cheesecake, churros, etc. We set a 4 hour window for parent's to do pick-up and make sure we send out a reminder notice so they remember. Works for us. Looking forward to using them again... good quality and variety and service.
We use Red Wheel. The product is great, and have been using them for years. The pie are great for just before Thanksgiving. Our biggest problem is having parents pick them up in a timely manor. Any suggestions?
We did a cookie dough sale in October and used Signature. They do a catalog also and sell cookie dough too.
We did all right for the first time doing a cookie dough sale, but had problems getting the cookie dough to the kids. This dough came pre-portioned in boxes which were heavy. The kids had trouble carrying it and if they ordered a lot they basically had to make several trips (we should have made the parents come get it instead of delivering to the classrooms but it wasn't my choice). We had some kids that forgot it at after-school care (too bad) and once case where the teacher forgot to give it out (we replaced it).
I personally thought it was convenient but not very good tasting. I have heard Masterpiece has a much better product. We have never used them, but their brochure is also much nicer.
I'm interested in who others have used too. We're thinking about David's cookies and muffins--we tried them at the NPN show in Philly, and they were great--but a bit pricey. I also tried the colored cookie dough that Litlle Ceasars has, and that was pretty good.
OK--come on guys--I know there are cookie dough pushers amongst us--who have you all had good/bad experiences with?
