I would probably do a 10 inch round. 65.00 would be about right for where I live. I would not do it cheaper than that. icon_smile.gif

a lot of folks charge by the serving. at $3 a serving that would be $90. it also depends on your market. in some places $3 a serving wouldn't fly but in others you could get it easily.......by the way that is a beautiful cake........ icon_smile.gificon_smile.gif

I would prob charge anywhere between $75-90 dollars. If you charge $2.50 a slice that brings you at $75 and a little extra for the gumpaste or fondant flowers. You have to pay yourself a little extra for all that time you put in your flowers icon_smile.gif Just my opinion..

Thank you... I've been out of the loop for awhile. Is it common practice to charge a per serving price for party cakes now?? I only used to do that for wedding cakes.
