I have a customer who would like to order cake balls. She's a friend of someone I work with. Anyways, I was just wondering what you all charge for a dozen? Thanks to all for your input....

depends on the size you are making. if it is a 2 bite (2oz scoop) then I sell them for $12 a doz. If I decorate them other than just dipped in ganache then I charge more depending on the decorations requested, the most I have charged for a small 2 oz cake ball is $3 each.

Lots of people sell them! They are so pretty and delicious. And the big stores in NYC and stuff, charge so much money for them it's amazing! Of course, I don't think that you would want to charge that much for them. But like she said, anywhere from $1 to $3 per cake ball sounds good. (Depending onwhat they want on it).

I'm in the boonies (rural Oklahoma) and I charge $8/dozen and because of that "high" price (for here) people only order them for very special occasions...but they are very much considered a special treat.....people just love them!!!
