$50 - $60. That's a lot of flowers! Very pretty and spring-y!

I just made a 10" basketweave for someone for $40 but then its two layers with buttercream filling and only some roses on top, not all those flowers. That's alot of work!

Beautiful cake! I was thinking around $65, but you may be in an area where you can charge more. I would hope you would get more, for all your hard work.

My goodness! How festive....beautiful flowers....and I love how you get your cream cheese icing to actually "do something"! LOLL I could NEVER get cream cheese icing to "behave" for basketweave! $50-$60 is my vote.

Thank you all for the help! Here I thought $50-$60 was too much money to ask but it did take some time to do. As for my cream cheese icing I used the wilton recipe but about 3/4 of the way through I had to start another bag as it was getting to gooey to work with and didnt want to do as I was trying to do. The flowers are atually regular vanilla BC bc the cream cheese wouldnt harden as I wanted to so I hope the peson that gets the cake is okay with that! Thanks alot I am off to finish my other cake for later today too!
