It doesn't matter how expensive your cake you buying from a made to order but the cake was worth it. Except, for some bakeshop who sell cakes that the owner thinks for the buyers. But because its commercial and its business I think they should also balance the amount of ingredients and time consuming for making a cheap cake that is why its turn bad when you think its cost you get $5 for a an ordinary sponge cake at Coles or Woolworths than making your own sponge cake and you can charge them for $25 if its small but if its large it could be $45 for 3 layers.
I believe that there is a balance for this situation. Some, supermarkets sells cakes cheap but turns out good it depends. If you are doing a made to order cakes of course you have to do your accounting job...there goes the ingredients for $30, your equipment likes pans and moulder and cake decorations will cost you big time :( but good investment. I think I had spent more $$$ getting all my stuffs for baking. When someone will ask me how much will you charge for that cake I cannot tell how much because I was just starting to collect all my complete equipments and for my cake decorations. I am not counting them when I made my cake. Roughly ideas, for my 2 layered just a simple recipe and not time consuming I can charge it for $25 this is only my example. I am not selling cakes yet because I am not ready yet.
The labor was killing...because you have to put more effort and patient. Rather than packing pies or party pack at the factory that makes your shoulder sore lol. Not to mention, cleaning all your mess that you use from kitchen. I need a dishwasher too :) not yet I can use my hand as dishwasher at the moment.
So, here are some of there comment about this message...
- it is not the cost of ingredients goes into it the hours you spent too.
- time consuming on cake decorations
- Cleaning all your mess in your kitchen
- People forget the labor you are making
- Anyone will sell cheap cake in made to order are silly
- Or there was something not right on it
- if you are trying to run a business you cannot compete the price from the supermarket that your buying each cheap of mass produced of rubbish
- When you spend a good quality cake but expensive well its worth it.
- Think about it and always remember.
