I get about a half a dozen calls a day , most result in orders while some do not , and 50 percent of the times this could be due to a price factor so I felt very strongly that the customers needed to understand why they are paying the price that they are. I've been trying to figure out how to convey this to you and read a status that stated precisely what I had been wanting to tell you so here goes :
"The price of cakes - particularly novelty cakes can sometimes be more than you might have had in mind initially. "Oh my gosh!", you think. "Surely it can't be that much - it's just a cake!". People often expect to pay a lot for a wedding cake, but are surprised at the quote they have been given for a novelty cake. Yet novelty cakes are often more difficult to make.
A novelty cake is never just a cake. It's a tailor-made commissioned piece of art for your friend/ loved one. A personalized gift to light up their face and make their day, and hopefully remember for some time afterwards. Much much more than simply a dessert at a party, or something to eat with their cup of tea; a novelty cake takes centre-stage on the table at any celebration."

I'm not turning around and saying we don't make money. Of course we do , after all it is a business but do we feel the cake is worth the money. Definitely YES!!!
