It is a beautiful cake and yea it was way to cheap. But what people don't realize is how long it actually takes us to make these cakes. So it is for our time to.

Those people really got a deal in my opinion. People think that they order a cake and poof it looks like this. They don't think 1st you have to go hunt down the ribbons and material and anything else that you need for the decorations. Then the FULL day it takes to bake all of these cakes, then the full day + that it takes you to decorate it and the day that you have to set aside to deliver and set it up. Thats 4 FULL days that you have there. So some people might not think it was worth 600. but we sure...

sorry for your heartaches, but this cake and decoration looks very professional, I would have made her pay me first and then tell me how she wants to do her cake.. and 400 is nothing compare to what they would have charged at the bakeries.. family or not, they should at least consider on timing you prepared and made this cakes.. you did a beautiful job, well done..

The way I learned about charging for a cake is I charge by the slice. This way you don't get cheated out of your work. I charge between $1.75 to $2.00 a slice depending on how much work goes onto the cake and the flowers. A slice should be between 2ins in and 1" 1/2 thick however I slice 1" inch think. My customers have asked me to cut the cake I also charge for that. If you want to know more about the prices and what I charge for like delivery, cutting the cake.
