Subject: Wedding Cake

Since we've got Cakers and assorted Bakers here...

We got a quote from the daughter of a friend for a 3 tier carrot wedding cake that'll feed about 75 for $160. We've had her cakes before and know they're yummy.

I'm thinking we're getting a steal of a deal. Am I right?

That works out to a little over $2.00 per person which is a very good price. When we do our wedding cakes, we ask how many people there will be and how much they are willing to spend per person. We've done anywhere from $1.50 - $8.00 per person. The price difference really isn't the cake, it's all the bells & whistles, fancy tiers, flowers, decoration, etc. Most importantly if you've had her cakes before and you like 'em, to me, that's the biggest part of it all.

Besides an expensive one?? lol Actually wasn't the most expensive cake I've done. The $8 one was a cake with fancy decorations and if I remember correctly fed 500. They wanted 10 tiers, lots of fancy flowers and gold leaf on the fondant.

Yes, you're getting a good deal. I made a 3-tier, 3-layer white chocolate cake for our wedding. It cost all of about $50, including the stand, bells, whistles, etc. Were I to do the same cake for a client, I could have easily charged $250 for it. Good thing you know another cake girl, eh?

;-)
