The flat cake is a yellow 9x13 cake with blue, green, black, red, yellow, and white buttercream icing. I flat iced the sky and hill with the rest of the decoration being stars. I like to use different textures on my cakes because I think it makes them more interesting. The price for this cake was: Cakes: $1.84
Wrapping: $4.65
Icing: $2.43 per batch x 3 = $7.29
Labor: $6 per hour x 2.5 = $15
Total: $28.78
The two layer cake took a bit more thought. The client really wanted Mickey ears to top the cake which could easily have been done with fondant icing. I don't like fondant icing though because it doesn't taste good, and I see no reason to put something on a cake that doesn't taste good! Especially a little boy's birthday cake! Instead I iced two chocolate chip cookies and put them on the last minute before I delivered the cake! They stood up, looked like Mickey ears, and were yummy! The bottom layer was a 9" round chocolate cake topped by an 8" round yellow cake decorated with red, yellow, blue, and black buttercream icing. The price for this cake was:
Cakes: $1.84 x 2 = $3.68
Wrapping: $4.65
Icing: $2.43 per batch x 4 = $9.72
Labor: $6 per hour x 3.5 = $21
Total: $35.05
