I think it depends on the size of the cakes, the level of detail, the cake flavours, etc. 2D vs 3D designs will also affect the pricing, and of course, which baker it is. She can gets quotations from multiple places, but ultimately, she needs to choose the baker that will deliver what she wants and quotes a price she’s willing to pay.

To be honest, $500.00 for a fondant cake is the range for 2-tier cake. It depends on the complexity of the design that you want on a cake. There is a 2-tier cake that cost $1k due to the complexity of the design and it’s all premium and organic ingredients used. Hope this helps. :))

You can get a cheaper and better design for 2 tier cake.Tbh For $500 it's a bit too much for Mickey mouse design and most of the people will eat the cake not the fondant. You paid more for the fondant then the cake. And make sure that the cake taste good.

Depending how complicated the cake is and the size of the cake. You can try this baker https://www.facebook.com/Lilsweetpeas/ I used her for all my kids birthday cake customized

Thanks for the recommendation, Pavin! Yeah my friend was a little taken aback with the price so she was asking around for some idea... will inform her about this ;)

Sounds pretty expensive. But fondant and cream has a price difference too. Also depending on how big each tier is. I did a 2 tier with 7 and 5 inch for 200+?

You can try Smiling Orchid. I think they may be better-priced than $500 for the design you're seeking for. That's a ridiculous amount to spend on a cake!

That's the usual range but i'm sure there are others than can offer slightly cheaper? The range is between $350-$600 for that kind of requests.
