Do You Charge More For Topsy Turvy Cakes?

I've only done a few ( for family). I know it took longer to finish one of these compared to a regular tiered cake. I have a friend that wants one for her daughters graduation party. She needs to serve 75 ppl. Here is a picture of the cake she sent me that her daughter picked out. Also what sizes would I use to serve 75 with this type of cake.
Cute cake that was picked. Yes, I would charge more 1) Tiers are taller than the normal tier 2) They are more time consuming. If you have a price for carved cakes go w/ that price as your base price. If not I would add at least $1.50 or more to your base fondant price (if it'll be fondant, if not to your buttercream price). I would charge extra for the accents too.
I'm not sure about serving sizes. I've wondered myself. B/c most are at least 6" tall (or they look squatty) & I'm not sure how you do the math on those. But want to find out. I definitely wouldn't do one again unless I had lots of freezer/fridge space to chill the layers.
at the place I used to work, it would go for 7.5 a serving....
but if that is above your pricing, I would go with the above poster.
I just took an oder and I only charged 3.5... 
I think I should have charged at least 4.5. oh well. first one im selling.. and we will figure it out from there 
Charge more?? Of course!!
More work, more skill needed to complete.
