Hello fellow cakers,

I am curious what you all think I should be charging. Here are two of my most recent cakes. I have no idea what to start on. I have done these both for family/friends. One I did for a photographer who is a friend of mine to use in a child's retro photo shoot.


Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I should mention to the above ^^^^^^ that I have done both of these for free.

funnily enough I have just posted a comment on another thread saying I had wondered what a recent cake I did might have cost from a bakery so I contacted 2 and asked - depending what replies you get on here might that be an option for you?

I do them for free when I do them because I have no idea what to charge   But I have seen on here that role are getting good results with (I believe it is) cake boss software.  I love this site. I am a huge lurker and searcher.
