for 400+ people. icon_eek.gif

It's for my daughters cheerleading banquet. I volunteered to do a cake. I figure it's a chance to show my talents at cost. But hopefully I'll get quite a bit of business from it. There are a lot of moms. I took a year off from cakes. I had 2 babies really close together and just couldn't lift cakes and give birth at th same time. So I figured this would drive some business my way since I'm kind of running a little dry just starting back up.

I'm not worried about the amount of cake. I've done a wedding cake that was 300+ and 1500 mini cup cakes. So what's a little more cake.

I'm just hoping my gamble of donating my time and cake will pay off. icon_biggrin.gif

Erdica,

I think that this would be GREAT ADVERTISEMENT FOR YOU. Yes it's free but God has funny ways to help his children. At times its a burden that we must do alot of work but at the end it's only the reward/

I think that you will see your fruits of you'r hard labor paid off. I will pray on that.

God Bless

Had to laugh at this line! The visual is just too funny!
I agree with the other posters that this will give you lots of exposure and should definintely drum up some new business prospects!
