Well not sure if this has been asked but, I think I have the hang of making Cookie cakes now and I took one to work the other day, and it was a hit. I had a couple of people ask how much I charged for them and I told them I would have to figure it up and get back to them. Little did they know I didn't have a clue how much to charge. So will someone tell me if this sounds to high or to low for a Cookie cake. I thought of it this way, 10 inch, $10.00, 12 inch, $12.00 and so forth. Thanks, and you all are the greatest.

To me, that sounds a bit too low. How many cupcakes are in your 10" cupcake cake?

MrsMissey, I don't think I explained this very well. It is a big cookie. Thanks

I think that's too cheap irisinbloom. . .
You probably spend about that amount of $ just in ingredients.
Don't forget your time, hard work, electricity, & packaging. . .

I would sell the 10 inch for no less than $20. . .
and the larger for $25. . . That's not too high or too low. . .

Hope this helps icon_biggrin.gif
Good luck!

Thats okay, I perfectly understand, I have a wedding cake to do this week and I haven't checked my e-mails in a while is the reason I didn't see your reply. I am stressing so bad over this cake it is a three teir heart and I only have the bottom two separator plates and can't find the top one I need, so I am in panic mode. This is only my second wedding cake and the first one I did was for my sisters son and we decided not to stack instead we put the cakes on separate stands and it looked pretty good.

Kroger does 12" cookies for $7.99. Just so you can compare. But I think your prices are pretty good. Just depends on the difficulty of the detail.

Although making big cookies is easier than a cake, I think you have a lot wrapped up in the ingredients. I have made several in the past usually 12 or 14 inch and I can get $25 for them with no problem. Check out the big cookies they sell at the malls they get a hefty sum why shouldn't you!!
