sizes, flavors, fillings?  Gourmet products and ganache will make for quite a different price point than a boxed vanilla cake with a crisco based American buttercream.  And in caking, size does make a difference for the purpose of pricing as well.

Aww, you guys made me blush! Thanks for the amazing kind words...sorry, this is the first time I posted something like this....

 

WASC recipe with boxed cake. half butter/shortening vanilla buttercream. Topper is styrofoam, square 6' and 8'. The rest fondant.

 

I use direct sunlight for my pics, then edit it with instagram, then use picstitch....all free apps!
