With all that extra (flowers, fresh berries) you're gong to have to get at least $3.50, maybe $4.  The darn containers are 50 cents each.

AYep, I made some recently and charged $3.50 each, and wondered if it was enough...

AOh, and don't forget to have a stand to put them in!! You can't just lay them on their sides in a box, it's tacky.

I would definately charge $3.50 a pop. For such a little treat, it takes some time to put them all together.

AND depending on what part of the world you are in..... you can pay up to $3.00 JUST for each container!


THIS is why pricing questions on an international forum is about as useful as an ashtray on a motor bike

you re right ApplegumPam,

specially because where i live,i can t find anything for cake decorating,i have to buy everything on line,and shipping fares are crazy expensive!!

so i would never get any container for 50 cents,unfortunately.

but i can at least figure out how much you guys charge when you get containers for that price,that help me find my own price .

i ve also heard that the price change depending on the town where you live,even through the States.

Anyway,thanks to all for your answers,they re really helpful !

I actually paid $30 for 100 of them. I wonder how much shipping would be to send them overseas?
