Those are some big cake BALLS! Mine I do smaller, I guess when I think of cake balls I think more of cake truffles and that's what I prefer. I actually like putting most of mine on a stick like the christmas ones in my photos.

At first I was thinking WOW she is really under pricing then when I realized you really meant $3.50 ea I was thinking icon_eek.gif .... That was before I saw your pictures!!! LOVELY!!! I see why you charge what you do. The flower (purple and orange) is that made from Royal Icing?

Obviously there's a big difference in the size of a $3.50 cake ball lol. I wouldn't charge more than $1 ea for a bite size cake ball(as long as there's not a lot of decorations involved). LOL, I'm not paying much more than that for a bite of anything! icon_biggrin.gif

I charge $15 for 2 DZ. I dont do mine fancy at that price. Just round balls dipped in chocolate and put into a plastic container. Normally I get the colored containers at WalMart. I make a profit on what I do. It's not time consuming for me and I can do plenty at one time! I'm going to make some for Valentine's.

I charge $1 each for 1 inch cakeballs. How do you put them on a stick, I'd like to try that.

I charge $.75 for plain dipped, and $1.00 each for decorated ones... and they're about an inch in diameter. Also, a trick I learned if you dip the stick in chocolate and then in the cake ball, once it sets, it holds a thousand times better..
new at cake decorating.. looking for all the help possible.

What do you consider the difference between a cake ball and a lollycake?

I charge $1.25 each. It'll depend a lot on your local market. It'll relate to how much you get for cake per serving.
