Can a bake sale be good to sell at a corner stand?
It depends if you have good stuff at good prices and if the place you are selling has a lot of people passing by.
How long do you cook a canned pre-cooked ham?
There is no need to cook a canned pre-cooked ham, you can simply warm it to any temperature you desire, or eat it cold.
Keep in mind that canned ham is ham meat that has been ground and reformed into something that resembles an actual fresh ham, but it will not slice like a ham. It is referred to as processed ham, much like cheese slices that undergo a similar process.
Canned ham makes great ham salad for sandwiches. Add mayonnais, chopped dill pickles, and chopped onions, and voila!! youhave a great ham salad sandwich...with a slice of cheese on top of course.

Additional information:
When the word is used as an adjective, describing a type of food, it is always in the past tense: Baked chicken, baked macaroni, baked apples.
The word is in the past tense because the food being described was baked in the past - or possibly, it will have been baked. "We plan to have baked chicken for lunch tomorrow."
The word generally is used in this way for foods that might be prepared in a number of different ways. Chicken might be stewed, roasted or baked. Apples might be raw, fried, candied or baked. One would not describe cake, cookies, pies or muffins with the adjective "baked," because those pastries have no other way of preparation. They are always baked, so the adjective is not needed.

Why is temperature control important in preparing yeast dough?
Heat and warm water with some sugar activates yeast, almost like you're waking it up and feeding it. If the temperature too hot, you'll kill off the yeast and your break won't rise but if it's too cold you the yeast won't "wake up" and activate properly, so your break won't rise. You leave the dough in a warm spot after making the dough to give the yeast a chance to ferment the sugar in the dough and the carbon dioxide byproduct poofs it up.

How do you cook an 8 pound precooked spiral cut ham and do you suppose to add water in the pan?
Since your ham is precooked, all you have to do is cover it with foil and warm it up at 325 degrees for about 60 to 90 minutes. If you want the outside browned, just take the foil off the last ten minutes and raise the heat to 350-375. It will not dry out because most hams are injected with lots of water at the packing plant. Now, if you want your ham to taste out-of-this-world delicious, here's how I did it when I was a professional cook. Mix together: the juice from 1-15oz can of pineapples, 1/4 cup brown sugar and 4 teaspoons ground cloves. Slather the mixture all over your ham and in between any slices you can get it in to. Cook the same as above. Save the juice for gravy or just spoon it on your ham and mashed potatoes. I guarantee you will love it.
