    My sister made ours for free and was a two tier fruit cake but we paid £60 for it to be iced and delivered to our venue and set up by someone my sis knew who had started up her own baking business. xx

    My sister is making ours. We're having top tier of fruit (to save for our first born), middle layer leomon drizzle and bottom layer of choc orange. We're not having to pay for it as she's making it as a gift to us, but she does this professionally and we'd have expected to pay around the £350 mark should we have paid. Hx

    There are so many people out there who will tell you
    what you can't do.
    What you have to do is turn around and say, "watch me"!!

    ours it £350 for a 3 tier and separate cutting slab of fruit cake. It cheaper to get a cutting slab than have the bottom tier fruit. My own design and done by a local cake maker (who we always get our birthday cakes from, cause they are LUSH!)

    Our cake is £170, a 3 tier, with one tier lemon sponge and the rest vanilla and raspberry, made by a professional cake lady. Was quoted £250 for original design so have chosen a different one and managed to get it to £170 :D It really depends on what detail what you want on it as they charge for the hours spent making it. Hope you find what you are looking for!
