grooms cake pricing

how much do you think a fancy grooms cake (ya know, a cool shape w fondant) would cost for about 35 people?

a friend of a friend makes cakes and i asked if she could make mine. she is checking her work schedule, cuz this is something she does on the side...but then she also asked me my budget

i have no idea...and i really dont have a large budget for this at all...but what is a fair price??

anyone price this out yet?

thanks!

Cakes by Mona quoted me $300 for something NY Rangers related (I think it was simple like the symbol). I'm skipping it lol

depends on the detail
most bakeries do $3 pp with fondant and then add on the time for details....

but thats just me and my knowledge

Well, I don't know exactly how much bakeries would charge but to give you a rough idea, for our EPARTY my cousin (chef) made a boat cake (replica of FH boat) as a 'grooms cake' so to speak..........PIC IN ALBUM

people kept asking her how much something like thta would go for for their own parties and she said probably around 300-450?? It fed about 75 people (very small slices LOL)
