I don’t think $75 is unreasonable at all. There are formulas you can use to figure out how much you should charge depending on the raw materials, base costs, and the margin you want to make because that is skilled work and sometimes people that probably could do it if they tried would rather just spend the money. Beautiful work, well done
prices is not just about having more than the ingredient price, it also has something to do with craftsmanship.
Your skills will up your price, so your price will depend on you since the consumers can choose and if they still choose you despite having higher price than others, then that means your consumers deem your product worthy
It’s a fair price dear, the previous price was too low. I make cakes, breads, and pastries and people complain about prices all the time. But my time and effort has value and ingredients are expensive these days. Some have no idea all the time it takes to bake a cake from scratch, the planning, etc.
Way too much? Do people not understand the cost of ingredients, the electricity to bake it and the time to decorate? Wt heck is wrong with people? Im always pleasantly surprised to hear how affordable the beautiful cakes i see in videos are. If anything id say bump it up 15$
Edit: or $30, that’s still very reasonable for a tasty, beautiful cake.
This takes so much practice and effort, I made one recently (really ugly compared to yours) and it took so much effort and preparation. It’s art, and it should be valued. If people think you’re overcharging they’re welcome to do it themselves ❤❤
You deserve the raise. This take ingredients you buy, time and talent to be able to do what you do. Plus storing the cakes and delivering.
You’re doing great girlfriend ❤
Girl 75 is still cheap for all that work you have to do. I know because I’ve done many cakes before. That shit takes time and patience. Beautiful cake by the way 🎂 👌🏼 ❤
everyone just please think about what a slice of cake from starbucks costs, and then how many slices of cake are in a full cake, and then the fact that you’re getting it cUSTOM, fRESH, and with qUALITY INGREDIENTS — $75 seems more than reasonable??
People seem to forget how freaking expensive baking aids are. I come from a lower middle class family where we’re currently living paycheck to paycheck but my folks still get me to make cakes for special events like birthdays and Christmas, but cocoa powder, butter and powdered sugar ALONE chew into our budget, so we have to plan way ahead for when I need to make a cake. Charge anything you want boo. It’s not easy and it’s not cheap. You need to make bank for your time and effort x
l’m no baker but I do love making a cake from scratch for my fiancé’s birthday every year. First year it wasn’t from total scratch bc it was a recipe of his favorite cake that I got from his Mom. Second year was a chocolate and peanut butter cake and the third was a carrot cake. I put a lot of time and love into making him a cake and I’m excited for all the birthday cakes I get to make for him in the future. I’d never spend $70 on a birthday cake but the time I spend on it plus the ingredients, I can see why someone would charge that. Esp when you add in a bakers experience and the fact that they make a living off of it.
45 for cakes when you’re practicing is perfectly normal and honestly a good idea, i’m glad she uncharged them because that cake is NOT 45 and doesn’t look like a practice cake, definitely worth the 75 dollars imo
I I’ll make one to my birthday with my mom and we already tried and they look
exacly the same so it’s cheaper and it makes more fun but I luve the cake in the video ❤
Honestly…. I think it depends on where you are selling them. I live in a small town in ohio. People around here complain about paying over $100 for a 5 tier wedding cake. For birthdays I usually pay around $30 for a cake that feeds 20 or more people and has what ever image on it. My daughter lives in boca raton Florida and paid $1000 for a cake the size you made for a baby shower. So if you are in an area like she lives you are under charging.. (yours looks much better than the one she got) if you are in my area you wouldn’t be able to sell them.
Charge whatever you think is reasonable…at the end of the day if people like your cake not just for the looks ..but the taste too.. they’ll keep coming back. Good luck❤
Thats a fair price given the raise of prices for all the ingredients and specially decorations so good for you on charging what is worth your work
Yes I would agree with that price bc you need to make some profit and honestly for that cake I would 100% pay 75 it’s gorgeous!
Sure I would, just as long as there was $6980 hidden inside it
the cake icing isn’t smoothed out you have tons of uneven on the top
I think you should sell basic yet still pretty cakes for 45-60 and super pretty cakes like in the video 60-80

I feel like before was way to low but $75 sounds like a good price because all that icing!!!
Those cake take Time and a steady hand to make, girl charge your 75 !
You determine the value of your craft not anyone else my dear. Dont let anyone else tell you what your value is.
prices is not just about having more than the ingredient price, it also has something to do with craftsmanship.
Your skills will up your price, so your price will depend on you since the consumers can choose and if they still choose you despite having higher price than others, then that means your consumers deem your product worthy
I feel like if the top where the 18 is if that pink frosting was a little flatter it would be worth it but there’s some indents

$45??? I’d feel bad and give you a huge tip, there’s no way a gorgeous well made cake like that is only $45 😭

Meanwhile the same people saying to raise the price think remodeling prices for your homes is outrageous 🙄🤦♂️
45. There is no way. Working at a loss. Charge your worth which is wayyy more xx
This takes so much practice and effort, I made one recently (really ugly compared to yours) and it took so much effort and preparation. It’s art, and it should be valued. If people think you’re overcharging they’re welcome to do it themselves ❤❤
2 dollar ass white cake with 50 cent frosting bye
$45 was a steal!
Def not overcharging bae
So cute 😂❤😊
You deserve the raise. This take ingredients you buy, time and talent to be able to do what you do. Plus storing the cakes and delivering.
You’re doing great girlfriend ❤
No
So Beautifull cake…..❤❤❤❤
The price depends on what’s it made of and how much time to make it…😜

$75 is a discount. Your cakes are gorgeous. 🩷
You gotta do what you gotta do ❤

It looks really nice. Keep up the good work!
This cake is beautiful ❤
$45 was waaayy under charging. I think you should make it an even $80
They’re beautiful!
I’ll try make a cake like this and then I’ll have an accurate idea on whether or not you charge too much.

I think the price is fair, and I also think it’s fair to undercharge when you’re learning.
Nah 75 is deserved this is beautiful girlie
If you’re making profit now then fair but it just sounds like a lot.
$45 super reasonable: worked at a bakery for a while.. cake would’ve been charged at $65
Honestly i don’t think its a bad price for a full sized cake HOWEVER i wouldn’t be able to pay it in this economy 😢. Sucks cuz its so cute too!

I I’ll make one to my birthday with my mom and we already tried and they look
