I have been asked to make a cake similar to this one, except a 2-tier. Can someone give me an approximate price that I should ask for this? I am somewhat of a beginner & have never done anything this complex, but it will be very time consuming!
Any advice will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

For most people the price will depend on the number of servings needed. All those details will take time, but the flowers will make it easy to cover any flaws in the fondant.

Don't forget about the licensed character issue, if it's for a customer and not a family member.

This one would go for 3.50 per serving if I were selling it in CA.

Good luck!

Yeah It's a pain I know but let them put toys on it instead of you making figurines.
Charge by the serving.....2 tiers can serve anywhere from 10 to 100 so we can't help with more on pricing Starting price should be around $3 per serving.

Thanks guys! I was clueless about the licensed character issue!! But thank goodness it's for a close friend! )

Thanks again for the help!!
