Congrats. Your cake is beautiful. Thanks for posting this. It is neat to see everyone creations. And interesting to see the prices across the US.
Congratulations! What a big step!!! You've sure earned it! I can't wait to hear how this helps business.
The range of prices is scary! Some cakes seem to be priced too low and some are astronomically high - I live in VA and I think it was the most expensive cake and I couldn't believe it! I mean the guy who baked it is amazing but still, $4300 for a cake is a lot! My whole wedding had that budget!
I'm glad someone else noticed! WOW!
Most people, I thought, were WAY under priced. I mean Nevada??? How long did it take them to make all of that. I think it is a huge mistake to under quote like that in such a popular media because now people are going to think those are real prices.... 
Congrats on your success.
May the orders keep rolling in......And now you can give yourself a raise?? No? 
Okay, I notice that as well, some were priced waaaayyyyy too low!! The Nebraska cake is BEAUTIFUL and it was only 200.00!! 
I'm hoping that's for a mini cake because that cake is gorgeous!!
But anyway, congratulations guys on your cakes being in People Magazine!!

littlecake,
The writer asked me to email a couple of photos for consideration and I emailed 2 photos... so they chose the one they wanted.
I don't feel any different... it is rather weird that this has happened.
I just know I give GOD the glory for any recognition... HE gave me the talent and I want to use it for HIM!

I can't find it anywhere either. I looked at the grocery store, walmart and target. no luck.
i found my copies at walmart, they were in one of those hanging boxes at the register. only one register had the magazines. the other decorator mentioned he found his at borders by the people mag.
my girlfriend mantioned she had to go to 2 stores before she found one. but i didnt aske her which one. i will email her and see.
someone asked about the cover, its pink with wedding stuff and says people extra.
I am going on a hunt today to find this magazine. If I am unsuccessful, would one of our now famous decorators be willing to sell me and send to me an autographed copy? Come to think of it, maybe this is why I am having such a hard time finding one... you all have bought them out to send to all your family and friends. lol

That was my cake. Yes, it was a smaller cake. If I remember correctly, it only served about 70. When the lady from the magazine contacted me, she did want to know the serving size, but for some reason, they didn't include that on any of the cakes. I wish they had because it does make it seem as if my cakes are cheap, if compared to others, but it also does reflect the area we are in. I charge $2.50 a serving for fondant cakes, and I am the most expensive in cake maker my city.
On another note, I can't find this magazine anywhere either. 
Save your money on the magazine (unless you're one of the winners!); their web site gives much more info., plus, the magazine refers you to their web site. All the photos are small--they're spread across two pages. I found the magzine at Vons grocery store, at the check-out area.
Kudos to all those who were featured!
After searching through allllllll the racks of magazines in two different stores, I finally found several copies in the last checkout counter of the third store (found it in the last place I looked...lol... sorry, old joke.) I too was disappointed. I guess I was envisioning the same type of pics as on their website and NO prices listed in the mag. This was the main reason I wanted it, so I could show clients examples of what other decorators are doing and showing their prices. Oh, well, I am going to go back to the website and write out the prices listed. I may even email the companies and ask about servings. Great job again CCer's!!

Well, I thought your cake was beautiful and thanks for telling me about the servings!! 
Have you received any calls yet about this article??
Congratulations to all!!
I picked up the magazine last night in the grocery store. The magazine was okay but if you only want the cake pictures, stick to the website!
Lora - well, if they got your name wrong at least they got your contact info right - lol
Aundron - I was glad to see the midwest so well represented. So many people think of us as hicks but your cake sure showed them!
I used to live in Omaha NE but now live in Northern VA - let me tell you cake is not the only thing that's more expensive here!
