That is a big order. Is it for a party or some ones own personal usage

@chickengirl14: so 6 dozen for a party. Is it a birthday party or just some type of party

@bhatjc: anniversary party

@chickengirl14: that is nice. What type of frosting is going to be on those cupcakes .
chickengirl14 · 41-45, F
@bhatjc: they ordered 6 different flavors- so I made different buttercream - peanut butter, chocolate, banana, cream cheese, coconut and almond

@chickengirl14: So each dozen will be a different flavor of frosting. What will the cupcake be or is each one different as well. Are you using mostly butter cream for the frosting.

@bhatjc: we did coconut cream, chocolate salted caramel, banana pudding , red velvet, Reese's peanut butter and vanilla almond honey cupcakes

@chickengirl14: So each dozen is a different flavor of cupcake,and the frosting as well. that is a lot of batter to make up. And not counting the frosting as well. Did you pull any that stuff off the shelf or did you make it fresh from scratch
chickengirl14 · 41-45, F
Scratch! Yep a lot of work which is why I charge 23.00/dozen
bhatjc · 46-50, M
Wow. But you are right that is a fare price. What if they just order one flavor of cupcake and icing. How much would that be
chickengirl14 · 41-45, F
@bhatjc: 23 per dozen no matter how many dozen. And each dozen has to be all the same flavor
bhatjc · 46-50, M
@chickengirl14: that sounds right. Do you ever make the cupcakes in shapes or do you used the standard cupcake pans
chickengirl14 · 41-45, F
Standard cupcake pan- I don't do crazy decorations I focus on flavors

@chickengirl14: Good point. I did a halloween party once. Did cupcakes using ghost shaped cupcake tins
