There is a keto bakery about 30-40 minutes away from me. Her cakes start at $55.  It's pricey, but keto ingredient are more expensive and she does a beautiful job on everything she makes.  Plus everything tastes great.  We've ordered from her a couple of times, for special occasions, but I normally do my own baking and the decorations are non existent - maybe a few SF sprinkles if you're lucky.

I get it; but 20 years ago, a professional 10 in 2 layer cake here was $40.00.

 

According to an inflation calculator, $40.00 from 20 years ago to today is $69.99.


@ECBG So with shipping you're at what--$95?

Not surprised. If you look at any high end food catalogs their cakes start at about $80.

$80 for a cake?   I just don't get it.


TOTAL RIP-OFF. How about $76 for 16 3 oz eggrolls or $115 for 32 3 oz. eggrolls? SMH.

Yellow cake with Buttercream.  They make the best!

 

I'm weird.  Don't care for any frosting!  Just good cake!
