Hi ginaolivant

I think generally this would be considered a shaped, rather than a carved cake. However it still requires a good level of skills to get the shape right. Making the flowers also requires skill and attention to detail. All these touches add extra value to the cake. What you charge will depend on your own level of skills, the time taken to make the cake to completions and your location.
It’s a good idea to have a look around in your own area to see what competitors are charging for similar cakes.
