Dont know if I want to take it or not (not because I DONT need the money because I DO greatly). It's a rather strange request and I wanted to run it by you all! I just posted my cookies and cream cake (in my pics) and I had a one of our running canadites secretaries call me (friends of the family with the political figure) ANYWHO....They want a 3 tier in cookies and cream...decorate each tier just like my 1 cake looks icon_confused.gif . With the cookie crumbs on the sides of each tier, big swirls of icing on the top with the oreo's. Now I know it's NOT hard...but weird...I'm scared someone will frown on this. The stack is a 16, 12 and a 8. Just all cookies and cream filling with the truffle filling in each stack in at least 1 layer. Decorated exactly like I have mine. Would you do it? And should I charge for a decorated cake?


TIA

Maybe I shouldn't respond since I don't sell cakes and my reputation isn't on the line but I don't see why something like that would be frowned upon. It sounds really cool and what could possibly be better than oreos? Yum. It looks very professional and by being tiered, even more so.

It'll be interesting to see what others will be posting.

That sounds sinfully good... I would drool nonstop at the sight of such a cake. Go for it.

Alright I excepted it icon_biggrin.gif Just waiting for a date. I guess I was stumped on how to charge for it. icon_smile.gif But I guess what I will do is charge like I would any other cake at 2.50 a serving icon_biggrin.gif

I'll post when I'm done

Thank you all for your responses, Gotta love you beautiful people!!!
