How to Buy Your Cake Supplies Wholesale

Based on all of our experience in the wholesale baking industry, we have discovered quite a few things and learned more about the kinds of products that work best to help a kitchen run smoothly. We are always examining our current offerings and looking at what else we could be doing in order to further support our customers, giving them everything they need in order to thrive and do well in their respective businesses. It is a competitive industry, but with the right mindset, background knowledge, and resources, you can certainly have a successful bakery that your customers love and appreciate. We want to do right by our customers here at Stover & Co, so we make sure that we only offer the best products that we can recommend you use in your kitchen, for fair wholesale prices.

In addition to offering high-quality wholesale baking supplies, we also like to provide some extra advice whenever we get the chance. We find this helps some folks to come up with new ideas when they are in a creative baking rut, or to have a good jumping-off point when they are looking to try new things in their cake shops. Our blog page is filled with some suggestions for how to work with particular ingredients or advice on the types of products you should consider buying from a baking supply store. We want to take this time here to discuss some essential cake supplies wholesale that we recommend you buy to have a well-supplied kitchen. The exact brands and flavors are up to you (we can reasonably recommend any of the brands in our store) but what matters is that you choose these types of products so you can have what you need to make a wide range of cake products for any occasion. Here are our primary recommendations for the cake supplies wholesale that you should prioritize the next time you place an order for baking supplies.

Baking Supplies

It almost feels unnecessary to even suggest this, but we would be remiss to ignore it altogether. When purchasing your cake supplies wholesale, you need to check on the inventory of your most basic baking supplies like flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, etc. These ingredients are important because they provide the foundation for the rest of your work and cannot be easily substituted with anything else. Try to check your numbers every month to see how many of these products you use up and if that number changes month over month. This should help you to better gauge how much you will use and how much you need now.

Instant Baking Mixes

As an extension off of your more basic baking supplies, you may want to also order some instant cake mixes that can help you to greatly improve your efficiency and consistency in the kitchen. While you are shopping for cake supplies wholesale, don’t be afraid to include some cake mixes if you genuinely think they can help your work. There are plenty of flavors to choose from, so you certainly have options for what you may need.

Cake Decorating Supplies

You get more freedom when it comes to cake decorations because you can do a lot with a small number of supplies, but it is still good to keep your options open and to have enough supplies to get creative. Frosting, icing, sprinkles, and piping gel are always easy to recommend since they are used across so many cake designs, but you have a lot more than that to choose from and use on your products.

Packaging Materials

Just to wrap everything up, we have to remind you to pick out all of the cake and cup cake packaging you will need. Before anything gets handed over or delivered to the customer, it needs to be carefully packaged. You will need to pick out the cake boxes, cupcake liners, napkins, bags, and cupcake trays that will be used to send your baked goods off to the customers.

This should act as a good reference point for you to better determine what it is your kitchen needs most. These are the types of products we have found cake shops benefit the most from having and would struggle without. While some ingredients like flour and sugar are more critical to a kitchen's daily functions than say, a certain color of icing, all of these ingredients are the types of cake supplies wholesale you want in your pantry or refrigerator so that you can make all of the cakes, cupcakes, and cake pops your imagination can think up. You can browse our products here to create your next shopping list and make sure you are supplied with everything your bakery needs. If you have any questions about our products here at Stover & Company or need help with specific recommendations, all you have to do is send us a message and we would be happy to help.
