Hello fellow CC'ers. First this is my first post but would like to thank every because I have learned so much just from reading other posts. It's great to know everyone is so helpful!

I'm new to cakes but have had some practice and have done well for only having about 8 months experience. I had some request a 3 tier (14,10, 6) round all Wasc with strawberry filling. All fondant middle tier hot pink outer tiers zebra with stars coming out on top. I know this cake will be some work because I did a cake this size for my sons 2nd bday. And that cake was big! I have no idea why to charge though. I use satin ice fondant because i feel it's pretty good. Although I was getting some cracking last time. I don't understand why. If y'all have any other suggestions on another brand it's appreciated. Any help is appreciated!! Thank you guys!!
