$$ of birthday cake

How much are you paying for LO's birthday cake? We are serving about 30 people & getting a smash cake. What is the norm for a bakery(not like Wal-Mart/grocery store)?

    Ours was 55 and feeds about 30 people. Maybe more because it is huge. No smash cake though.

    Wow...everyone got a good deal! Ours is more likely because of the area we're in... $100 + 30 for delivery... but for those who saw it on the other post, it is quite labor intensive with the cake cookie monster on top

    Cake for 25 people was 60 and my bakery does smash cakes from free.

    Our quote was for $110 for both cakes. DH thought it was steep, I thought it was an okay price.

    I paid $25 for a 1/4 sheet cake that could feed 16. I got a free smash cake for DD. I got mine at a really nice grocery store in town, and it was very very yummy.

    I'm slightly embarrassed. 145 for a 2 tier fed like 60 airbrushed fondant concoction with a turtle on top and a smash cake.

    Since we had a huge party, I got two quotes just for a three twirl cake one bakery wanted 330 and another 250! So I went to michaels and hobby lobby and made a smash cake and two tier cake with fondant and 50 cupcakes for under 75. Michaels and hobby lobby have great coupons. I didn't buy one thing withouta coupon :

    I made both the cake and the smash cake for DS's party.I probably spent about $40-$50 on supplies and stuff to make the cake.  I think the most expensive thing was the red fondant.  I prefer to make my own marshmallow fondant, but red is so hard to get the right color, that I just bought a tub from Wiltons.  If I had bought the cake (2 tier with fondant) I would have probably paid about $150-$200.
