It should feed about 54 people 2x2x2 servings, so depending on your market for sheet cakes, I'd say no less than $50 by any stretch of the imagination.

If it is 2 layers, I'll charge $60.00 and an additional $5.00 for the design.

Yes, you should charge for it. You did a great job. Your fbct is great. My 12 x 18 sheet cake is $45, plus extra for the fbct and all the deco. So I would say at least $55 if not $60.
