Yes, I definitely tell them beforehand and label them, plus stick a little note on the basket, something quirky, because we are a group that uses intense dry humor with each other. It is pretty laid back there any everyone is great but you cant be a super softie and take things seriously because you get teased. So I leave them a note like "Dont eat it, wash your sweaty pits. Fight over it, first come first serve, Dont be snitching soap stashes." But the basket does go on the food table. I bring samples to work of my small test batches a lot and let them fight it out, and of course they are decorated....cupcakes, piped tops, etc. So yes, totally agree. Cannot space off the labels.
