Really cute...is that an 8" round? I would charge $30 for it, and then $30 - $40 more for the house and all the details, so around $70.

for the 10" cake I would have charge $72.00 and I can't tell how big the house is but for a carved cake with the fondant decorations I would have charged $3.00/serving (my serving sizes are 1x2x4)

so $72.00 + house servings

HTH

Definitely a VERY cute cake!

Havent decided yet. Thanks for asking...But i want to save money to Buy a edible Image Printer. Its very expensive. Just want to buy that someday. Goodthing is my husband bought me a Kitchen aid last year for my birthday. So I dont have worry about kitchen aid anymore.

Cute cake! On your house, did you carve it together or is the roof a separate piece?
