I did this cake for a works function and charged £150.00 for it + 75 cupcakes, but im worried I overcharged as some people seemed shocked when they asked how much it cost.. the people who purchased the cake seem happy but Im a bit worried now about pricing!My first chargable order, this was for a company's 25th anniversary/man nesters 80's themed night. Two tier cake with 75 cupcakes :-)

 

Do you gets have set prices?

AIf the £150 (~$230) price included the cupcakes, you severely undercharged. The cupcakes alone would typically be priced higher than that.

It did include everything yes. Well I felt i should charge more but because i've only started setting up this small home business I really struggle to enforce my prices because of peoples reactions when the ask, they all Oooo and Ahhh when they see the cake/s and jaws drop at the price! I guess its beginners confidence? In which case I hope it fades :|
