How much do you charge for a 3D torso cake? (5 chocolate mixes, caramel in head for goopy brain effect, topped with BC and MMF).

How much does it cost you to make each of those 5 cake mixes? What about the caramel, buttercream and mmf?

You have to know how much you are spending on your cake before you can price it.

So far I have spent about $35 on the cake. I know I'm supposed to add on from there my time spent on the cake per hour, right. How much do you add on per hour? Or how do you do it?

What you spend times 3 typically. Sometimes 2.5 but never less than 2. if it is a custom made cake, and something you are designing for them and will take time to accomplish it, definetly go with the x3.
