I have a 10x15 3" deep magic line pan... what size sheet do you all consider this to be and how much do you charge for it? I am going a FBCT on top and plan to charge $5 for it, but was wondering about the sheet size..... thanks!

That would be like a 1/4 sheet to me and I would charge $30 for a basic design. Since the pan is deeper and you are doing a FBCT I would charge $35-$40.

thanks, I qouted $35 so I was just hoping I was in line with that. I didn't realize how hefty of a cake this pan makes so I had to use double boards on another one I did and I had qouted the lady for it $25 before I realized how big my magicline cake was... so my loss on that one, but lesson learned! Thanks again!

I've underpriced more times than I can count! I use the foam board you get at craft stores for my cake boards. I usually get them on sale for $1 and can get at least 2 boards out of each sheet{depending on the size}. I'm making a 12 by 18 for this weekend and I'm just using one layer of board. The cake boards are nice but the foam is cheaper and more sturdy, IMO. Good luck with your cake and be sure to post pictures!!
