We had the same issue when we started getting requests for cookie cakes. Cookie cakes are considerably easier in terms of labor than regular cakes, but the market price for a 12" cookie cake (based on Mrs. Fields) is in the $40 range, so that's what we charge. This leaves us with a profit margin in the 30-35% range, which is higher than most other products.
