I'm going to be delivering this cake this morning. It's two layers of 9" x 13" - each layer is 2 1/2" vanilla with buttercream and SI. She didn't ask for the fondant so I'm not going to charge her extra for that (fondant just made it easier for me to do!) I was thinking $40 - $45. Sound fair? Oh - it's for my SIL for her mom's surprise party - so . . . family.

For those of you who made suggestions on the "sayings" to use - thanks! I couldn't get a hold of her so I just went with the "Celebrating 60 years" and the smiley face.

Wow, your cake is amazing. It looks perfect! I think for your SIL $40-$45 would be fine, though if it were for a non family member you could hike that up quite a biticon_smile.gif Great job!

First Off, Great Cake! I would charge at least $60 for this because I charge by serving and this is a lot of cake. Since it is for family I think your pricing is fine. I don't charge extra for items that weren't requested so your price is fine.
