Transform Your Baking Passion into a Open House!
You don't need to guess your way through this.
Most advice on holiday pop-ups is vague: "bake a good variety," "price it right," "build hype." None of that tells you what to actually do.
This guide is different. It's built around one real event, my 2025 Christmas Open House, the biggest yet. I walk you through exactly how it worked, dollar for dollar, cookie for cookie.
Built From Real Events, Not Theory
This isn't a template with the blanks filled in. It's years of open houses, the ones that sold out fast, the ones with too many leftovers, and the one 2025 morning that brought in $3,600 in three hours. You'll see actual flyers, actual pricing history, and the real story behind decisions like why I stopped offering take-and-bake.
What You'll Walk Away Knowing:
- What one open house actually earned: a full revenue breakdown by product, plus how pricing moved year over year
- The exact menu, in real quantities: 100 dozen cookies and candy across 29 varieties, with recipe sources for every one
- The "Build-Your-Own" tray system: the line, the layout, the wrapping station, and the small mistakes that taught me where not to put the oatmeal raisin cookies
- How much to bake, and how to stop guessing: the single tracking habit that prevents you from losing a full year of data
- A full baking and freezer timeline: from one month out down to the morning of
- Cash-and-carry vs. pre-orders: an honest pros-and-cons breakdown from someone who's tried both
- What to do when it's over: leftovers, rest, and why it's okay to skip a year entirely
