Another very nice article and lovely photos. Tell your friend, the cakes look so sumptuous and tell her she is undercharging!!! Advise having her visit all the bakeries in her market area and price every equivalent to her pieces. She will see. It is much harder to raise prices down the road than to go in as you mean to move forward! Cheers and happy cooking! bz Hi Paula,
