That sounds really good!
I use my yellow cake recipe, take some of the batter and add cocoa and mix it up then add the dollops to the yellow batter, swirl and bake.

Yes, you should charge for it. You did a great job. Your fbct is great. My 12 x 18 sheet cake is $45, plus extra for the fbct and all the deco. So I would say at least $55 if not $60.
