I baked a 9" 2-layer strawberry cake with strawberry cream cheese frosting (cake mix doctor). The cake was colored Gold with top and bottom shell borders alternating colors of Gold and Cardinal Red. A 8" frozen buttercream transfer on top of the "San Francisco 49ers" words and emblem in Gold, Cardinal Red and White and I charged $38.00 dollars, am I overpricing? icon_redface.gif

I don't think you are overpricing either. : )

Would love to see a pic when it's done!

For what you described, I wouldn't charge less than $40-$45.

I think it depends on what area you are in - Here in central texas I would have charged about $28.

Just had a look in your photos and the cake is listed, but it's not showing the photo - just your description icon_cry.gif

Try now, I'm still new to this posting thing, I had just posted a Wedding Cake and then removed it because the picture was upside down, is this the one that wasnt showing?

BUT, ladies I thank you deeply for reply to my post, as I said, I'm new to posting and I have ALOT of cakes I've done, just afraid to post them (I'm my worst critic) icon_smile.gif
