I wouldn't call a three inch cake a petit four... it's a mini cake, really.
My starting price for mini cakes is $30. Per cake.
OMG, to both posts !! Whew, 3 in is hard to work with, I know thats why en-passant said so much, I start my minis at $10 ea ( Im in a samll community also ) But I HATE them, drag her away...far away, LOL. Or maybe a great filling and a poured fondant, and use the words mini cake to her that petit word get them every time. Those things are liek a bite or 2, a 3 in cake you need a fork! That costs more, lol.
Whew, tell her no, you gave her a price break at 100 ( so she feels good ) and you normally charge , like $10-15 a cake ! Its hard to hold, and control that to ice etc... ugh ![]()

Honestly, it might just be better that you didn't have to make them. Because they are so time consuming and 110 is a lot. And just think, the other baker is the one who let herself get screwed. $3?? My guess is that she will never offer those for $3 again.

Nope, sorry. Because of the following clause in the CC terms, which I read before I became a member here, I will not post pictures. This is not at all meant as a criticism of CC, but as an explanation as to why I won't post any photographs.

Depending on how detailed she would want them, I would charge her a minimum of $15. Only because you have to consider that even though it is only 3", the eater might eat about half of that in one sitter. So, we technically have 220 servings. Usually in a wedding cake that size, people would charge anywhere from $500-$1000. Now, since 110 mini cakes take more work then one wedding cake, you would be correct to charge more in labor. So really, at a minumum of $1600, the lady is getting a steal!
$7, even the $10 with lace and a gum paste rose??? I would be hating myself big time. I'm glad for you that she thinks it's too expensive.
