How much do cakes cost?

I am using a local baker for my cake, b/c it is not included. I have no clue where cake prices even begin. TIA

It depends on how big it is (how many it serves) but I think they generally start at around $300 and can go WAY up from there, depending on what you want and what bakery you use

I'm using king kullans and for my cake with cannollie cream and almond cake, they told me around $200 for a $100 people. So I highly recoment them. Also to cut cake cost try having a sheet cake made up and have display cake out for show. that way you save a lot of money off the fancy cake.

I agree. The bakery I looked at pricing was:
Cakes start at $12.50/person
Individual or miniature cakes are $15 and up (boxed)
Sculpted cakes start at $15/person (30 portions minimum)
Hand painting (portraits, etc.) $15/person
Local deliveries start at $25

That's even more than what I saw - that's the reason I went with the cake that the hall included. I just couldn't see spending that on cake.
