Hi all, just wondering if anyone had any opinions about how much I should charge just for this fondant cake topper. The customer is getting a regular bakery cake, but asked me just for the froggy/duck top part. Keep in mind, I am in brooklyn, ny icon_biggrin.gif

Hi! I just sold a "topper" for the first time a couple of weeks ago and didn't know what to charge, either. It was a bronto (long neck) dinosaur. I wound up just charging her $10 icon_rolleyes.gif I can only guess the translation to where you are and say -- $50? Hopefully someone w/ more experience can help out icon_smile.gif

I would charge at least $50. I used to do mine for about $25, then realized that they took hours and hours to make. So, now mine start at $75. They are a lot of work and worth very dime.
