How to Bake for Sands? 

There are lots of ways you can create a tasty treat, share it with your community and raise much needed funds for Sands at the same time. Check out some ideas below:

Organise a bake sale

Whether you choose to hold a bake sale in the office, school playground, staffroom or outside the front of your house, we guarantee there won't be many cakes left by the end of the day.

If you have the facilities, consider offering teas and coffees too in exchange for an additional donation to boost your fundraising total.

Allergen Guidance

Please be mindful of Allergens when preparing for your Bake for Sands event.

  • Do you communicate cross-contamination risks to supporters with an allergy or intolerance?
  • Do you have accurate written information you can refer to when asked about allergens?

You can find useful information and guidance on the food.gov.uk website and we recommend using their resources which include an Allergen Sign/poster and Recipe Cards
