I live in the Quad Cities and have my own shop....cupcakes are $18/dozen unfilled standard and $24/dozen filled speciality. Cake Pops are also $18/dozen. Cake prices are $2.50/serving for buttercream, $3/serving for fondant. I tend to be in the normal/low end of the market. Hy Vee charges $4/serving for buttercream and $5/serving for fondant but I don't think wedding cakes are their main market so that is why they charge so high. They have also just come out with specialty cupcakes for $1.50 - $2 each and cake pops for $1.50 each. The reason I say this about Hy Vee even though they are a big supermarket chain bakery is that in my area they are the most prominent and many times win the best bakery in the qc award each year. THere is another prominent bakery in the area and they're wedding cake prices are a bit higher than mine but lower than Hy Vee I believe.
