I would charge around $20, maybe $25 depending on cake flavor and filling.

It's very pretty!

It's beautiful I am impressed that you could do that in an hour. It took me a few hours to make flowers with fondant..and that was only making the flowers..not doing the cake and icing it too..YOu are fast girl!

I'd think 25 but then I don't really know because I don't sell many cakes.. Mine are usally free to good homes..LOL

I agree, don't turn your oven on for less than $25, haha, that is my motto! Lovely cake, you did a great job!

I have to agree at least $25 that sounds fair to me. Its a very pretty cake. I would have taken a few hours to make fondant flowers. MC

Hmmm, 6"..... I agreed with $25 at first but then went back & read that it was a 6". I would only charge about $20. Heck go for it, charge $25!!! Very pretty cake by the way!

Yep, $25 seems like the way to go!!! The fondant does incur extra cost to you, so it should for them as well!!

My cakes are a $1 a serving, fondant details I charge a bit extra. Iced in buttercream and a few fondant accents on a 6" is $12.00.

Your cake is very pretty, good job and quick too!! I think $20 is a fair price for a 6" cake, especially with all the flowers and decorations! but hey, if you can get $24, go for it!! icon_biggrin.gif

Boween, you only charge 1.00$ a slice for those great cakes you do? Are you crazy? You should be getting a lot more than that!! You do such good work! I am a big fan. Keli
