Hi CC Family,

 

I was asked to make something similar with 46-50 cupcakes. I don't know if I should just price cupcake price or I should charge as Bridal shower dress cupcake cake? Since this is my 1st time I don't want over or under charge the client. Can anyone guide me how you'll have been pricing such kind of requests.

 

Thanks in advance

What do you usually charge for cupcakes?  Simple white cake with White Chocolate buttercream frosting are $2.00 ea for me.  I personally would ask for another $25.00 for labor to form the dress.  Just me.

Either that, or you could increase the price per cupcake due to the more detailed design. I price mine starting at $2 each for basic cupcakes but it goes up from there for elaborate design. I'd also charge extra for the cost of the beads/decorations. Take into account your extra labor, as well.

Thank you both for quick reply. I will remember this for future request. I had to say no to the client because i got the Flue :(

 

Thanks once again icon_smile.gif
