Sounds like two minute mystery sorts of books.
The Two-Minute Mysteries series had 1-2 page mysteries. The solutions were upside down at the end of each mystery. There were several books in the series. Maybe one of those?

2 Minute Mysteries
Maybe?
I second Encyclopedia Brown, but it could also be Two Minute Mysteries, by the same author, but instead of having a main character like E.B., they were stand-alone stories.
I had a book called "Two-Minute Mysteries" when I was a kid. The mysteries were a lot like what you're describing. Amazon also shows a lot of similar knockoffs, although I believe "Two-Minute Mysteries" was the original.
Two-Minute Mysteries and books like them are always pretty popular. BrainQuest also can be big hits with that age group.
Hope those help!

This is definitely it, OP -- the story in particular is "The Case of the Home Bakery", from the first Two-Minute Mysteries.
And Saw IV took it from one of the original Two minute mystery books
