Help with fondue stall!!

scotth1988

Hi everyone, I'm having a chocolate fondue stand at a charity event this weekend (all proceeds to charity) I'm hiring the fountain for the day and comes with marshmallows fudge and biscuits to put on skewers. I'm planning to include strawberrys aswell but I'm trying to price them to sell but enough to make some money for the cause! I was thinking €3 per skewer?? I will need to sell €65 at that price to break even. Thanks : )

One marshmallow for 3 euro ???

I'd make little plates with a mixture of items and 1 skewer. Work out the cost of each plate and then add on a reasonable figure as profit. If I had 3 kids, I'm not gonna shell out 9 euros.

Lace them with cocaine and charge a fiver.

More details are needed, is it a fancy schmancy event where everyone is minted, or a stall in the middle of a load of other stalls selling stuff?





Like I will be able to figure it out after a few glasses of vino.:o

I love these kind of stalls, the kids love them too, but I am usually broke so I never pay 3 or 5 euro the people are asking for them.

Would you not just sell them for 1euro each, and then you should get loads of people buying them because they're so cheap?

Depends on the charity.

Which would be great .... As long as the ingredient cost is less than a buck, otherwise the more you sell, Yhe more you lose ....

Whatever you're paying for the fountain give to the charity instead and put you're feet up for the weekend.

A bag of marshmallows in Tesco costs like 85c (with like 20 in the bag).

You should charge something like 40 or 50 cents and hope for the best.

If I'm honest, I think it is a terrible idea.

You should have baked cakes, would have allowed you to maximise the use of the ingredients you bought.

Best of luck with it though.
