I had a cc'er ask me how much I charged for these cakes. I don't charge enough according to my family and some friends. I am accused of giving them away for a nice shiney dollar. lol

Anyway, I thought if anyone could give me thier thoughts of what they would charge for these cakes, it would help me and the cc'er that has asked the question.

This is what I charged.

2 tiered round HSM $50 (bc with fondant decorations)

Thanks so much.

Your work is very, very good! That amount of detail could probably command $3 - $8 per serving depending on where you are.

A word of caution, though: High School Musical is a Disney property. I'm not sure how far your design impinges on their trademark, but Disney is not known for being forgiving in this area. There's another thread in the business forum today about it. It's best to play it safe when it comes to Disney.

You have a wonderful talent!

Ecckkk. Thanks for letting me know. I will read the thread.

OMG...I agree with your family and friends...you are selling yourself short...don't give away your goodies...you are worth much more.

Great job...I love all 3

I'd go with what kellym says. Those cakes were excellent

You have totally shorted yourself on these cakes.

Cake 1 buttercream/fondant 9/6: 100.00
Cake 2 11x15 double layer: 130.00
Cake 3 all fondant: 155.00

Your details are beautiful. You should always charge extra for the fondant decorations.

Great job on all of the cakes!

Wow very nice cakes. I'll order them at those prices! You definately need to charge more. I'd go with $7-9 a slice (Wilton servings) if they are from scratch. The ingredients and fondant probably cost about $50 bucks at least. (I would be careful of the copyright thing too, Disney is the worst)

These cakes are AWESOME!!! You are charging way less then what you should be, but someone told me once that you should find out how much $ per serving other bakeries in your area are charging, but I'd definately pay $7-$9 per serving for any of your cakes, you have talent! Keep up the great work! And be cautious of the copyright rules and regulations. I'm off to read more on the thread link that was posted in one of your replies up there ^... Take care

I'm no expert at pricing cakes ( we don't charge by the slice here in Aus) but I agree with the prices Traci suggested - you've put a lot of work into those cakes ! They are all fabulous
