All of my wedding cakes have been gifts. I have a request for this cake. It's a 12 - 9 - 6 all buttercream on a plain yellow cake. They want it just like this one only yellow roses. Same topper too. Any tips on pricing will be helpful..... Thanks.

Don't know the going price for your area but I would charge $2.00 per serving.

I charge $3.00 per serving for a basic butter cream wedding cake. I would call around to other bakeries in your area and see what their wedding cake prices are, so that you can stay competative in your area.

I would charge at least $2.75 per serving if it's standard flavors. Beautiful cake by the way.

Sorry to be so late on the thank you on the replies to my question. I did not know that I had any. For some reason I'm not sent any notice. I get an e-mail saying I have a comment on my cakes but not any on my forum post. Anyway... thank you all for you help on the price.
