What would you pay for that cake?? I have NO idea what to price things as :(
 
OMG Sarah - that cake is bloody awesome !!! Well done you. Im so glad that the business is kicking off so well for you. xxx
 
Gosh I have no idea price wise - but if it were me I would price the ingredients then add say 10% and then a price in regards to your time. Like an hourly wage ?? How long did it take start to finish? x
 
Blob that cake is amazing! I paid around £70 for a three tiered cake with 2 me to you bears on the top (made out of icing). Then i paid £30 for a buzz lightyear shaped cake. And i paid £25 for number one cake with lightning mcqueen on but that wasn't as good as yours. I'd say round here you would pay around £50 for a cake like that with that much detail etc.
 
Thanks :)
I was going to charge £35 for the friend and was trying to decide £40-45 for this??

The cost isn't too much but it took a full day to make and then the night before making the animals?? So Robin wet himself that he wouldn't work for that hourly wage but that's not the reason I'm doing it :)
 
Blob - I'd pay about £60 for a cake like that.... thats blooming marvellous!!! I'm very jealous!!

AHHHHH TWO KIDS CRYING AND LUKE'S DOING A DUMP RUN!!!!!!

Will catch up in a few when I've settled em both!!!

Blob, Look at m&s prices they are about what you could pay manifactured, more when its hand made like yours are, usually cakes like you do start around the £50 mark for a simple one. I agree £70.

I wish I could kick dh up the arse too, I would usually just sod off but the children are happy, and I am too old to fuss about being with mr perfect, and mr perfect has a habit of turning into mr lazy in my experience:haha:

Great news for Amy.
And Blob I would say £65-70 for a cake like that I paid £45 for a small train for Ollie that wasnt really that good but that cake is great so would say that price.
 
Hey blob I'd say £50 for it , so talented ! Have you seen chocywoccydodah on tv? We been watching it the cakes are amazing !

ym hope the girls settle down soon x

Girls are tucking into there teas and watching toy story :)
 
Blob amazing cake !!! i would agree with the others about £50 xxx
 
Haven't got time to reply to all but Wayne is away for the week tomorrow so I'll catch up then! But wanted to send hugs to jelly... Dint forget I'm only here Hun!

And... Blob, you must bear in mind that people pay hundreds of pounds for two/ three tier wedding cakes! That cake is of wedding cake standard easily(although decorated slightly differently!!) .. You could pretty much charge what you want but I'd say £50 should be the minimum you should consider!! You are amazing and I would so hire you to make my wedding cake if I wasn't already married!! I paid 500 for mine, 3 tiers of sponge and fairly plain too!! I love looking at the photos xx

Love to all, hope Harry feels better today Ann?

Oh and in other news Wayne is off to Jordan at the start if November for 6+ weeks.. Pants!!
 
Thanks everyone :hugs: :hugs:

Btp :hugs:

Louise aww Hun that sucks least he will be home for Christmas?
 
Yes he'll be back on the 12th December ish although the Jordan exercise last year got messed up and they didn't get home till Xmas day!
 
Blob - fantastic cakes agree with others minimum £50. You can always start at that price and when business picks up increase the prices.

Lady k id talk to virgin now about the price as I doubt they would do anything later on. I loved the pic of Jake today, hes looking so grown up and handsome.

Louise - hope it's only 6 weeks Wayne is out in Jordan, did he offer to go or been told? Is His friend still going out and at the same time?

BTP - good news there's been no more sick. Hope you can start introducing more food soon.

Better day today, been to the inlaws for lunch. My face has come up in eczema today it's so sore and raw:-( think I'm going to gave to go back to my non perfumed creams and shampoos :-(
 
Ouch :( my face has excema too from stupid face wash glad you had a better day :hugs:

Louise :hugs: robins working all December until 4th jan :dohh: sucks for you just getting Wayne home really
 
Blob - I'm not sure what's causing it at the moment as I've changed so many things in the past few months..... Facewash, shampoo & conditioner, shower gel, moisturiser hence I've got to go back to non perfumed for everything . I used use expensive stuff clarins and dermalogica - so looks like a shopping spree for me !!
 
Thanks again everyone James seems to have picked up a lot today and has drank his quota of milk for the day but will no doubt drink at least another 150ml in the night! Gave him some movicol earlier cos he hasnt been for no'2's for a few days...he had been now :blurgh: xx

Fantastic cake Blob!! Id say about £50 too x

ym...what is a 'dump run'?? lol xx
 
LBB - glad James' appetite is back fingers crossed for a weight gain this week :hugs:
 
Hello girls!

No time to reply to everyone now, I'm shattered! Got back from a lovely weekend, went to Paris for the day with Matt yesterday which was lovely but it was such a looong weekend! We travelled down to my mums on the coach on Friday and left Holly there, went to Paris 7am Saturday morning, came back 9pm Saturday night, left my Mum and Dads this morning at 10am and arrived back home at 7.30pm tonight!! Shattered isn't the word! Holly was pretty good on the coach considering it was such a long journey, but she did cry a bit, cue angry stares from the other passengers!! Miserable gits lol

Anyway Holly's only just gone to bed, I let her stay up and run around and play as she needed to stretch her legs after being stuck on the coach all day. She's still awake now, I can hear her! I want to go to bed!!

Catch up soon x

ps Blob love the cake!! I would pay between £50 and £60 for a cake like that, it's fab! x
