CUSTOM CAKE PRICING ~A Little Long…But So worth reading!!!

Setting a Budget for your Custom Cake…

We receive from people almost daily inquiring on a cake. They have very specific ideas about what they want and have a specific idea of how they would like their cake to look. They may have decided on colors, accent pieces, sculpted pieces, even flavors, and they know what they want to pay.

So when you call..we will have some questions that need answered so we can get down to business.

- What is the date of your event?

- How many servings of cake will you need?

- Do you have a design in mind?

- Do you require delivery?

- What is your budget?
We would like to elaborate on this one. It is not a trick question.

There are many techniques and materials that can be used to get when designing your cake from base cake and filling to finished piece of edible art. We need to know how much money you want to spend so we can choose which methods to use to get to your finished product. We need to know how much detail to include, if we can use fancier techniques like poured sugar, hand sculpted pieces, or possibly even purchasing special tools for your project. Does SugarPlums need to employ a carpenter to build a frame for your cake? It’s all going to play into your quote and that is why your answer is so important.

So, when you tell us that you want a cake to serve 60 people and you want it to defy gravity, you want specific detail pieces (about 30 of them), you want sparkle, you want your guests to go “WOW”, and you only want to spend $300.00. We would like to know, HOW did you arrive at that number?

Here are the facts we are sure:

Those shops you see on TV have a minimum order for custom cakes. One has a minimum of $1,000. And it doesn’t matter if you only want to feed 25 guests. One charges $100.00 just to sit down, taste some cake, and talk to them about your design. No finished cake included in that price. And the per serving cost of a fondant decorated cake usually STARTS at about $8.00 a serving. But more likely will cost you about $12.00 – $14.00 per serving because we already know you want WOW factor.

So let’s break it down. 60 servings of cake. WOW FACTOR. Budget of $300.00. That’s $5.00 per serving. Which is the base price at our shop for a fondant cake. You know, where we start. (Remember those TV guys start at about $8.00) So HOW did you determine your budget of $300.00?

Did you research what custom cakes cost before you got that number? Or, is it how much you have to spend, it’s a number that “sounds good”, and really, it’s just Cake and Icing! Right?! Let’s be real… If it was JUST Cake and Icing, you’d have gone to a larger in- store bakery and picked up a sheet cake.

You don’t want cake and icing. …

You want mouthwatering edible art!

AND…There’s a difference. Creating a custom sculpted/carved/designed piece of art work, requires talent, experience, time, materials, and skill. And that cost money.

So before you “decide” on your budget. Do a little research. Make sure that your budget makes sense. Make sure you account for what you are asking for. And be honest with your cake designer when they want to know your budget.

You see, you might not be able to afford a Carved 3-D cake of your fiance’s car. BUT you could afford a smaller tiered cake with a sculpted topper that looks like his 1930 Orange Pick Up truck. There’s a difference of about $300.00 or more in those two cakes. So keep that in mind. If your budget isn’t reasonable for what you requested, ask your designer HOW you can still match your theme but get closer to the budget. And don’t be offended if they tell you that you can’t afford a custom cake. It’s okay. We know we can’t afford a Mercedes. We just buy the car we can afford. We can’t try to tell the Mercedes dealer that he HAS to change the price of the car because we only have $15,000 to spend. He’d laugh at us, right?!

So when you figure out your budget, make sure it is backed by a little research. That way…you will experience less disappointment in the end.
SugarPlums wants you to HAVE FUN WITH IT…. Custom Cakes can truly be the centerpiece of your event. And considering it’s art that you are paying for, they should be!
