It is that time of year again and we will once again participate in Nake‘u Awai’s Christmas Faire “HAIL, HAIL, THE GANG’S ALL HERE! December 3, 2011 at the Ko‘olau Ballrooms in lovely Kane‘ohe, selling baked goods. The marketplace for sale of our baked goods opens at 9:30 a.m. Because of generosity of our members and supporters, HCCH raised $1,268 at last year’s bake sale at HCCH member Nake‘u Awai’s holiday fashion show. Funds raised at this event support our club’s general fund for operations and are separate from the HCCH Scholarship Fund. We need your kokua again. So happy bakers, drag out those cookie sheets and baking pans. We are looking for “Homemade” baked goods:
| All types of cookies | Brownies with or w/out nuts | All types of mochi (a must!) |
| fruit bars, also pickled onions, Preserves | Mini cake loaves (bread or cake) | … and cash donations always welcomed |
| Candied Apples |
“NO PERISHABLES PLEASE” |
Anything special |
Please wrap your items “festively” (see through packaging – preferably) with pretty ribbon and describe your item with a label. Presentation is a big plus and baked goods sell quicker. People are quite health conscious today and labeling your goods to show the ingredients is good. Please bag your cookies and bars by the “half dozen” which we find is easier to sell. (We prefer not selling anything in a zip lock bag). Pricing for the goods will be in denominations of $2.00, $3.00, $4.00 and up [as we would prefer to stay away from coin change], depending on size of item and how much your package contains. If you would prefer that the baked sale committee price your item, please let us know.
If you are not a happy homemaker baker but would like to support this fundraiser, we will gladly accept a monetary donation. Checks should be made out to HCCH and mailed to:
