Okay, I have made some cookies for practice and people have asked me what I would charge. I really have no idea as I am a home baker and just do it for family and for fun. Anyways, our church is going to do some fundraising, and I thought that maybe I could make some cookies and sell them to people at my husbands work or at my kids school (to the teachers) or at church. The cookies are about 6 to 7 inches high. I would probably do a few different styles of cookie. I will attatch some sample pictures. I was thinking somewhere between the lines of 5 to 10 dollars each, since it will be for fundraising. What do you all think?
Wow!!! Those are amazing. I would definitely say at least $5 each or a little more, depending on what type of area you are in.
I know that a ton of work goes into that detail that you do but I still think a lot of non-cookie/cake people would get sticker shock for a $10 cookie - even though it would be a fundraiser and your work is worth it!
I would say around $7 because of size and detail. Did you use royal icing? And did you free hand everything? They look great!!
Yes, it is all royal and all freehanded. I cut the cookies by hand as well, meaning that I didn't use a cookie cutter.
Wow what great cookies you have!
I have not sold cookies, but others on the threads swear by $1 an inch. But since you are free cutting them I would go $10 a piece. They really are unique, one of a kind custom cookies.
Those are so friggin cute!!! I would definately go with no less than $8/each. People will buy them for two reasons. One, because they are for a fund raiser, so it seems like people are a little more generous when its for things like that, and two because they're so adorable!
Thank you everyone for the responses. My husband said, "maybe 5 dollars" So I think I would have to go on a cookie by cookie basis. =0)
Those are amazing!!!!! I would say no less than $7 - I agree that you don't want to shock people, they are worth $10 easy but those who don't do cookies probably couldn't comprehend the time and effort that goes into them. I'm feeling $8... yeah, that's what I'm gonna go with
