Need dessert ideas for a fundraiser show? How about a lava cake or dump cake?

[PamperedSD]

I have my first fundraiser show this weekend. Its for a 3-day walk. I am starting off the show by making the Pink Panty Droppers and then doing to Aloha Pizza. The host seemed worried about having enough for everyone. I told her if she thought a lot of people were coming - over 15 I would do a dessert. I was thinking the lava cake but not sure it would go well. Maybe a dump cake? Any suggestions?? Also - should I do the cake as a demo or make it up ahead of time and put it in the micro at the same time as the pizza and just say what I did? I don't want to have too long of a demo - I've never done the pizza or this drink before.

I just found this recipe - looks awsome but maybe too many steps as a second recipe. Do you think I could do this ahead of time or should I do it as a demo?? I would love to get bookings using the DCB.

do the pizza as the make ahead, then do the pineapple cake as your demo, it features the deep covered baker (booking tool), and the pineapple wedger, which I tend to sell a lot of whenever I take a pineapple with me to shows!!

I do this as a 2nd recipe all the time.

Before the show, I melt the butter (right in the DCB) and sprinkle in the brown sugar, and then I mix up the cake. Then, as the 2nd recipe, all I do is cut and arrange the pineapple in the bottom of the DCB, and then pour in the cake mix and pop it in the micro. Takes about 5 minutes for the actual demo part.

Thanks for the tip! I'm going to do it this way and bring all the ingredients for the host.
