Everyone starting their own cupcake business knows how much a red velvet cupcake is loved and requested at bakeries all across the world. They are perfect for many different occasions and can brighten up anyone's day as a sweet pick-me-up!  Since this particular type of cupcake is especially loved by so many, whenever setting up your vendor booth at fairs, there are many key aspects that one must keep in mind to remain a top selling fair vendor during these events.

The first step that you must take to make sure that your beloved red velvet cupcake is chosen by many people is to make sure that you have a top-notch recipe. Your recipe should be walking circles around the other vendors and be drawing a crowed at your vendor booth. In order to accomplish this perfect recipe, it will take a lot of trial and error on your part.

Try recipes from different local bakeries and see what you like best and what you like the least. Icing is also a huge component in the cupcake. Specifically, the cream cheese frosting on red velvet is legendary! This icing shouldn't take over, but should be just the right amount to win over the customer. It's all about finding that perfect balance between the high quality ingredients that you use, that will set your product apart from others.

After the recipe is complete, and you arrive at your designated booth, it is important that you work on the marketing aspect of both your business and the product. The booth should be decorated properly to draw customers in, make them yearn for what you are selling. In addition, your wonderful red velvet cupcake should be packaged in a manner that sets it apart. You don't need to spend a ton of money on packaging, because it can really add up.

There are plenty of little touches that can be made that will allow you to stand out and be unique in the way that you are doing things. Simple examples include trademark colors, cupcake wrappers, colored boxes, and specialty printed nametags with ribbons. It's always important to keep in mind the impact that the packaging and presentation has on your customers.

Lastly, it is vital that you give your new customers something to walk away with besides the cupcakes, something that provides them with your contact information and how to purchase more of your products. It is highly advised to have a professional looking pamphlet put together that outlines the products that you offer, their prices, how long in advance orders need to be made, as well as your contact information. The more professional this looks, the better!
You never know how many loyal, lifelong customers that you will gain while setting up a booth at a fair and participating in a fair vending environment.

In conclusion, no matter if your red velvet cupcake recipe is competing with others at these events, in order to remain a respected fair vendor, always make sure to compliment the other people who are setting up booths as well with their products. No matter what they are offering, it's all part of the fair vending experience.
