I just got the quote from my baker on our cake. we have a total of 225 guest and we have a 3 tiered square cake with two sheet cakes coming up to $529... I have heard about wedding cakes being around $150 so I wanted to get a idea of what everyone is paying for theirs lol

    BTW that price includes set up and delivery. We went with basic flavors- vanilla and chocolate, to save money. And we asked for the icing to be half chocolate and half buttercream. It's our not-so-sly shout our to our interracial marriage, our friends who have seen our inspiration photo always get a good laugh out of it!

    Attached is our inspiration photo and cake topper.

    $250 including delivery, but that only feeds 50 people. Getting several $20 Costco sheet cakes to feed everyone.

    My mother made ours so we paid for the ingredients and anything she needed which was about €150. If she was making it for a client it would easily have been over €800 as it was hand painted and had a lot of sugar paste lilies and pionee roses on it. It was a four tier cake.

    My tiered cake is $4 a slice (medium range in my area), and we are serving 100. You could always do a smaller tiered cake for looks and cutting and then have a sheet cake stored in the back when it's time for dessert. Great way to save money.

    Ours feeds 120, 3 tier. All different flavored, filled, simple buttercream frosting, with delivery for about $400.

    This is a bakery in a small town in IA.

    Ours is about $1,400 for a 5 tier cake and a sheet cake. It is $5 a person for 300 people. We added in a white chocolate mousse that ended up being .50 cents more a person as well. Most bakeries I've seen are about $4-7 per serving.
