How Much Should I Have Charged For This Cake???

do you have a picture of it? it would help if we could see the design and the details on it.
I think you should ahve charged more....my most recent cake that i made was a fullsheet cake...nothing really special about it, had Starburst candies on it in the shape of stars for decorations, no filling...and I had charged $67 for it, the lady gave me a check for $75 though....so IMHO I think you should have charged more, not sure how much, but more....
according to the chart i go by, that would serve about 75 party servings. i would charge about $200 for that cake.
My servings are 1x2x4 so I come up with 125 servings out of that cake (if they want party sized servings then they need to order more cake)
For one layer of filling in a two layer cake I charge $2.25/serving. Since the buttercream decorations are easy I probably wouldn't worry about adding any additional cost for the fondant flowers (I say that now, but I haven't done one like this yet)
So I would have charge $281.25 and that includes delivery within 7 miles of the center of town (pretty much city limits or a 15-20 min drive)
HTH
That is a very cute cake!
It sounds like they certainly got a lot of yummy cake for the price! And the flowers are so cute. 
Please take this as an honest observation... but I would think that the only thing that might keep you from charging very top dollar might be the lettering. To tell you the truth, though, I avoid writing on cakes at all cost because it's so hard to get it perfect!
