I can't get the picture to post, so please look here to see what I am talking about: http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1205045
I have 13 NFSC with RBC. Around $5 for the supplies used to put the bouquet together. Never done a bouquet of this size and at a loss on what to charge. Would appreciate some feedback!
For loose cookies I charge $3 each. If this is for family, you could charge for supplies and then something like the $3 for each cookie. Somewhere in the range of $50. Depending on complexity and design, you could see prices go much higher for 13 cookies in a bouquet. I don't know where you live, but that's just an idea for you.
Wow, you did a great job. I made my first bouquets for Valentines Day and my cookies were similar in size (3-4 inches) & amount of decorating/detail to yours. I only used 5 cookies per bouquet and got $20 from my friends. I used less cookies just to keep the price down as I too live in a small town. I didn't have any orders, I just made some up and took them to work to "show" them. I think I would want $25 for my 5 cookie bouquet if I was actually "in business".
You don't say what size your cookie are.
I charge $1/inch. So lets figure you have 4" cookies. I also charge $1/pkg, since you have them individually wrapped that is 13 pkgs also. My buckets I use are usually around $1 each with some tissue paper so I add on $7 (I have this already figured out for boquets up to 6ct-anything over I figure on a per order basis as my tins don't hold many over 6 well so the container may cost different)
13x$4 = $52
13x$1 = $13
1tinx$7 = $7
Total = $72
And yes I do get this with no hesitation. Have you looked at cookies by design prices? I am still cheap-and I have delivery within 7miles included too!
Thank you!
I was wondering, in case, anyone were to ask me when they see it. This one is not being sold. And the cookies are 3-inches.
Thanks again!
I was wondering the same thing. Thanks for the thread.
I charge $48 for my 12 cookie- bouquets, So- I'd probably do that size for $52. I know you didn't ask... but next time- try to stagger the heights of the cookies- cut the front ones shorter so you can see them all...the cookies are lovely and should be seen 
Just my 2 cents!
Yeah, I still haven't gotten the hang of arranging the cookies correctly. However, these are better than some in the past. So maybe, I am getting better at it with time!
Thanks for the advice!
I made cookie bouquets for Easter and did small baskets with three cookies and two peeps, and i sold them for $10 each.
