I just had a lady call me wanting a 3 tier cake. 12, 10, and 8 inch rounds. I'm assuming it's two of each. Just covered in buttercream and smoothed out as much as possible. Wanting me to stack them together with dowels in them also. I have never had a request like this. She did not tell me how many people this was to feed either.
What would you charge for something like this? I'm not sure. Thanks for your help and suggestions they are always very much appreciated.
well that's 65 servings for me so what do you charge per serving? I'd charge $5/serving... but that's me. is she looking to decorate it herself? It is an odd request.
What's your base rate for a plain cake for 118 people? It sounds like she knows how to decorate a cake (or knows someone who does) but doesn't have the facilities or time to bake it herself. I'd charge the base rate for 118 stacked "bare bones". I wouldn't send it out in your personalized boxes, though.
Sounds to me that someone just wants you to bake for her, and she will take care of the other details.
I'd charge per seving like any other cake/order.
) SOUNDS like someone is looking to pass this cake off as their own, after they add their own touches to it! No way Jose'! 
Oh gosh... that's more than 65 servings... I was thinking 6-8-10. an 8-1012 would be 105 servings for me. Sorry about that... 
I just round to the nearest 5 for servings... makes for easier math on the fly. (apparently not easy enough though LMAO) You are certainly not over charging.
And I had to LOL for you Jamie... my blog is not much of anything just yet. I am going to get cracking on it when I get back from vacation though. I promise! 
You'll have to let me know if you want anything covered...
