I requested a quote for a groom's cake from Cakes by Mona and I am trying to figure out if it is reasonable. I am want a recreation of my fiance's car, a 1983 Firebird Trans Am (aka KITT / the Knight Rider car... yeah, he actually has that) and maybe some small details of other stuff that defines him in the corners (a little helicopter, Mets logo, our dog, a drumset).
Mona quoted me $500 for a cake that will feed 30 people and another $200 for the other small details. Do you guys think this is reasonable? What quotes have you been getting?
Thanks!!!

The $500 seems alright but then add in the $200 and $700 for a Groom's cake seems a bit high.

East Norwich is actually right by Oyster Bay, right? That's not far from Syosset, where North Ritz is.

Just an update... I ended up going with The Sugar Chic! She is so upbeat and totally responsive and her prices are more reasonable than the others I've seen. I've had a great experience so far and I highly recommend her!
