A woman I work with asked me to make the favors for her wedding.

She's expecting 150-200 people and wants Mexican wedding cake cookies made and two put in each small favor box.

So I'd be making 300-400 cookies, but the only "decorating" would be rolling them in pwered sugar.
I'd then put the cookies in mini-cupcake liners and place then in favor boxes. Then I'd glue a ribbon around the boxes and glue a small glass bauble on top of the ribbon at the top of the box.

She just asked me this morning for the wedding in mid-Sept. She's already bought the favor boxes, ribbon and baubles. I told her I'd come up with some pricing and get back to her.

Any ideas on what I should charge?
The cookies won't be difficult to make, but making that many and then hot glueing everythign together could be pretty time consuming.

Thanks in advance for your help~

A friend of mine just got a quote from a local bakery that is doing her wedding cake. She is having cookies tied with ribbon as her favors too. I don't know how extensive the cookies are but they quoted her $0.30 each. Don't know if that is much help!!
