Good Evening!!

 

I've wanted to start renting my cake, cupcake and cake pop stands but have not had the time to sit down and sort out pricing and deposits. I've decided on 30% of value for rental plus deposit of total replacement cost. Here is my issue, I have a cake pop stand, pictured below. I made a cake and cake pops for my best friends wedding as her gift and her father made this gorgeous stand which they gave to me because they had no use for it after the wedding. The two bottom tiers have holes for cake pops (228) and the top is 14.5" so it can hold a decent sized cake. The base is 27" x 27".

 

I know to purchase one custom made it would be atleast $300, probably more. 

 

What would you suggest rental/deposit fees for this stand?

AI think you already answered your own question! Rental fee at 30% of stand price and deposit at 100%

Thanks, I figured that but since I do not have a replacement cost and didn't purchase it, I was hoping for some suggestions on a value. I believe i'm in the right ball park on price but would love some input.

Thanks!
