Cooking Show Prep: What to Bring?

[krhodes74]

Good afternoon, Gal's & Guy's. I have loved all of you info that you have given out on this site. It has all been so great. I have just started this month and I have my first cooking show this Saturday. I was wondering what items should I take. (if i have them) I don't want to have to make 3-5 trips to the car to get stuff. Thanks for all of your great help.

1st show

Good afternoon, Gal's & Guy's. I have loved all of you info that you have given out on this site. It has all been so great. I have just started this month and I have my first cooking show this Saturday. I was wondering what items should I take. (if i have them) I don't want to have to make 3-5 trips to the car to get stuff. Thanks for all of your great help.

Looks like we will be doing our first shows at the same time!! I'm doing my first show this Saturday night myself. My best friend is hosting it. I plan to meet up with her tonight over a coffee to go over her show, how she is doing with her invites,and the recipes. We decided to go for a dessert theme as it will be Saturday night after supper and people won't want anything too heavy.
I am only taking my kit that I got Friday night. I have a few other pieces of pc stuff when I was a consultant a few years ago. But I plan to promote my stoneware first. I will be using my large flat round stone first. I want to make this really yummy looking peach dessert that I found in the All Best recipe book that came with my kit!
Good Luck with your first show! Perhaps we can keep in touch to see how our shows went !!!

Cheers!

Well of coarse you'll need to bring all the products to make the recipes but I would also recommend to bring ALL or any of the cookbooks you have, guests love to look through them and I guarentee you'll sell at least 1.
I also bring all the spices so guests can smell them. The Food Chopper, if your not allready bringing it, the Tool Turn About with any and all Pampered Chef tools you own. I always bring the Stainless steel bowls and/or Collander and Bowl set, the knifes, clock/timer, if I'm using a stone that has a woven basket to fit, I always bring it, crinkle cutter, all the Scrapers, can opener, prep bowls, measure-all cup, and one piece of Cookware.
I know it might sound like a lot but it's what works for me.

Congratulations on starting your new business and good luck with your first show!

Hey Chef Aggi!

Good luck with your first show! I hope it's a real success.

And to get the stainless steel bowls (they are fab - I LOVE mine) you have to submit 4 qualified shows in your first 30 days.

Hi Marg..
thats right it was either $1500 or 4 shows... something like that.. I need to have all shows submitted by April 19th. oooh I want those bowls! I plan to work on my list of 100 people tonight. I read a little bit earlier about some fundraising ideas.. that got me thinking too!

Cheers

I would bring everything that you need for the recipe as well as any new items that you may have. If you don't have any of the new stuff don't worry, just bring what you need for the recipe and the higher priced products.

Aggi, Thank you soooooooooooo much!!
