How much for this Cake?

http://www. facebook. com/editpicture. php?success=1#/photo. php?pid=3835698&id=572542958

I made this for my sisters Baby Shower and have TONS of requests for it. I am looking to eventually make a home business out of specialty cakes, but am learning and starting out. I live in florida and was wondering how much you would pay or think I should charge for this cake? Also, have added links for my sons 2nd B-Day Luau cake and other sons 3rd B-Day Mickey Mouse Clubhouse cakes that I made. All from scratch, even the fondant and buttercream. How much for each in your opinion?

I will soon check local bakeries, but thought I’d post to. :)

  1. I could not follow the link. . it said it may be removed. I am a professional cake decorator. I charge $1. 50 per serving without handmade flowers/other ornaments.

  2. Those links do not work. You probably have your setting on private for these photos.

  3. Sorry, the link didn’t work here either. Check them.

  4. The second set of links worked.

    Your cakes are cute. There’s more to opening a home bakery than just knowing how to make cakes, though. You have to find out if your state licenses home bakeries and what the requirements are. Florida doesn’t license home bakeries, so you would either have to find a commercial kitchen to rent, or do cakes illegally, which many people do, but that seriously restricts how you can advertise, and you can’t buy business insurance to protect yourself in case a customer becomes ill.

    Personally, I would probably charge $50 for the belly cake, $110 for the luau cake, and I wouldn’t do the Mickey cake at all, because I don’t use plastic figures on my cakes, and Disney aggressively goes after bakers who produce anything they hold the copyright on, to sue them. There’s not much demand for fondant-covered sheet cakes either. . . most people who splurge on a fondant-covered cake want a tiered one or a carved one.
