Violet Wexley Tiered Cake Pricing Calculator

Stop pricing tiered cakes by gut feeling and hoping the margin works out.

A tiered wedding cake isn't one price decision — it's a stack of decisions about servings, labor, materials, and design complexity that most bakers either eyeball or do on paper mid-consultation. This calculator does the real math: build the order tier by tier and get a defensible total price in seconds, broken down so you know exactly where every dollar comes from.

What it does:

• Add as many tiers as the order needs, each with its own size — servings calculate automatically from a real wedding-cake serving chart, not a guess
• Handles tall tiers correctly — a 3-layer tier costs differently than a standard tier, calculated automatically
• Flags the one mistake that actually costs bakers money — picks up if Cream Cheese frosting is selected for an outdoor event and warns you before you commit to something that won't hold up
• Full cost breakdown — ingredients, decorating labor, boards and supports, packaging, delivery, and overhead, so you can see exactly where the price comes from
• Built-in market check — compare your price against competitors and see instantly whether you're positioned as Value, Competitive, or Premium
• Suggested labor hours that adjust to tier count and design complexity, fully editable once you touch them

What's included:

• The tiered cake pricing calculator (opens in any browser — no software, no login, no subscription)

This is yours forever. One-time purchase, no recurring fees, works completely offline once downloaded.

Perfect for anyone who's ever frozen up mid-consultation when a bride asks "so how much would a 3-tier run me?"
