[postimage id="3871" thumb="900"]Hi guys!

Although I'm getting better at charging I still struggle a bit because I'm afraid people might think I'm insane for charging the way I do but I only know how long it takes me to work on these cakes . I don't want to loose my precious time from my family for something not worth it. I was asked for a replica of this sponge bob cake I charged the gal $120 for this cake no filling and 20/30 serving cake. I thought it was a fair price considering the details but I wanted to get some feedback ?? Please and thank you :) she was fine with paying that amount.

well you've got the copyright bug biting you first of all -- so that's no bueno --

but if this were a generic figure your price is respectable although it slides dramatically from $6 a serving (solid) to $4 a serving (weak but holding on) -- your serving range is 50% additional servings -- 

i think my 2-d sculptures should have a minimum starting price of at least $150 but no copyrights

best to you

I don't think you overcharged at all.  I probably would've been somewhere around $125-$150 with a filling and 2 layers.

@-K8memphis ‍ We seem to be following each other around and posting on the same threads, at the same time, this morning.  Great minds think alike :)
