re: Dreaded Cake Pricing! Am I undercharging! (UK)

I’m dreadful at pricing as well but I try and have a base price for each size. £45 for 8" £35 for 6" and I don’t even have 4" tins yet but would aim for £20/25 I imagine (haven’t calculated that) then I add on for models etc. I include a basic level of decoration in the base price but would want more for the building blocks. My models are between £5-£10 depending on how complex (which is ludicrous as I’ve spent over 3 hours on one before! Ha!) I’ve been very candid haven’t I but I don’t think we need to be secretive over pricing, there’s far too much of that in the world of cake. My rough price for his cake would be £120-£130. Your cakes are amazing Laura, I’m surprised you aren’t charging much more!
