I'm sorry to ask a pricing question but I've got my first cake order and I have no clue what to charge. The customer wants the Wilton 3D car cruiser cake. How many does it serve BTW and how much should I charge? I was planning on mounting it on a 9X13 made to look like a road with grass (something I saw in the gallery). I'd really appreciate some help!!!

the wilton car tin serves 12. I am terrible at pricing, but charge it for the amount of work it takes.

Each cake pan will require one cake mix, so applying the most simple calculation I have found on this site: $15 per cake box x 2.5 = $75...at least it's something to get you started thinking figures...
