I bring only what's needed for the recipe, and maybe a couple of new items (my last show I brought two Cracker Trays, Bamboo Bowls, the Medium Bamboo Tray, and the Pineapple Wedger. These items are light and pack easily. I also used all of them (made brie with the Spicy Pineapple Rum sauce over half, and the Ginger Wasabi over the half), and crackers. We also, of course, used the Pineapple Wedger.

Ditto....I pack for the recipe....my extras usually include the current month's Host Special (unless it's late in the month) and the next month's Host Special. In fact, lots of times I look at the current/next month I wanna book and I incorporate the demo based on that special so that I can show it and then promote it for 60% off. I used to pack way too much and I finally scaled back. Sometimes my Hosts will request something they wanna see or a guest may wanna see.
