How Gorg 😍 Birthday Cake !
How stunning 🤩 15th Birthday Cake 🎂
The cutest little Easter treats 😍 Cornflake Lollies, these were stuffed with Chocolate Orange Mini eggs and a Malteser Bunny on Top 🤤
Will be doing these in boxes of 6 with your choice of chocolate.
The Lightest Most Creamy Giant 10" Malteser Cheesecake 🤤 Made for my birthday Saturday. If you have a family like mine and not all of them eat birthday cake then this is perfect 😍🥵
Just something simple yet beautiful 😍
I feel this is worth sharing...something I see a lot of...
A CONVERSATION ABOUT PERCEIVED VALUE:
A customer asked a baker how much it would cost to do this cake
The baker gave him a quote: £1000
The customer responded: That’s seems really high.
The baker asked: What do you think is a reasonable price for this job?
The customer answered: £250 maximum
The baker responded: Ok, then I invite you to do it yourself.
The customer answered: I don't know how to.
The contractor said: Alright, then how about for £250 I'll teach you how to. So besides saving you £750, you'll learn valuable skills that will benefit you in the future.
The customer answered: Sounds good! Let’s do it!
The baker responded: Great! To get started, you are going to need some tools. You will need a mixer, scales, spatulars, bowls, baking tins, baking belts, parchment paper. butter, flour, sugar, eggs, vanilla, all the flavours you may want, fondant, icing sugar, board and box, etc..
The customer answered: But I don't have any of those, and I can't justify buying all of these for one cake.
The baker responded: Ok. Well then for an additional £200 I can rent my tools to you to use for this cake
The customer answered: Okay. That’s fair.
The baker responded: Great! We will start the cake on Tuesday.
The customer answered: I work Monday through Friday. I’m only available on the weekends.
The baker responded: If you want to learn from me then you will need to work when I work. This project will take 3 days so you will need to take 3 days off work.
The customer answered: That means I’m going to have to sacrifice my pay for 3 days or use my holiday time!
The baker responded: That’s true. Remember, when you do a job yourself you need to account for unproductive factors.
The customer answered: What do you mean by that?
The baker responded: Doing a job completely from start to finish includes time spent to plan the project, pick up materials, travel time, fuel, set up time, clean up, and waste disposal amongst other things. That’s all in addition to the actual cake itself. And speaking of materials, that’s where we will start on Tuesday so I need you to meet me at the cake suppliers at 8:00am.
The customer answered: At 8am?!! My work day doesn’t usually start until 9am!
The baker responded: Well then you’re in luck! My plan is to start on the cake by 9am. But to do so we have to start at 6am to get the kitchen scrubbed and germ free before we can go for supply's and materials picked up, loaded and delivered to your kitchen.
The customer answered: You know, I’m realizing that a lot more goes in to a job than what a customer sees in the finished project. Your quote of £1000 is very reasonable. I would like you to make my cake for me.
CONCLUSION:
When you pay for a cake, especially a custom cake, you pay not only for the material and the work to be completed. You also pay for:
✔️ Knowledge
✔️ Experience
✔️ Custom Skills
✔️ Tools
✔️ Time to plan
✔️ Time to prepare
✔️ Professionalism
✔️ Work Ethic
✔️ Excellence
✔️ Discipline
✔️ Commitment
✔️ Integrity
✔️ Taxes
✔️ Licenses
✔️ Sacrifices
✔️ Liabilities
✔️ Insurance
If you request a quote for a custom cake to be done, please don’t disrespect a baker by trying to get them to lower their prices.
If their quote exceeds your budget, there’s nothing wrong with getting other quotes.
Just remember.. you get what you pay for.
👉🏼 SERVICE PROVIDERS: Know your worth and be confident in it.
👉🏼 CONSUMERS: Recognise their worth and be respectful of it.
