Can your cakes compete with your local bakery? If not, I'd suggest keeping it as a hobby. No one likes fondant for anything but its look anyway.

[Anonymous No.6476651]

>>6476642
i can compete in prices, the only one around me charges more than twice muy price, and in terms of looks theyre only slightly better than mine.

I fucking love rtr fondant. I would always snack on it when the pastry section was making a wedding cake.

[Anonymous No.6476655]

>>6476654
dang it tastes bad bro, or maybe im just sick of it cus i use it so often.

[Anonymous No.6476659]

>>6476651
Do you have any cakes that aren't fondant? I mean, visually fondant cakes are quite appealing, but not everyone cares for the taste.

[Anonymous No.6478000]

they look pretty awesome, but I have no idea how you would sustain yourself on selling cakes only. Do you have a lot of customers at the moment?

[Anonymous No.6478007]

OP please dump moar, these look fantastic! What's the economy like in your country, if people are willing to shell out extra bucks for custom cakes this could end up working very much in your favour.

[Anonymous No.6478038]

If you can find a way to get into doing wedding or catering orders you could probably get a decent amount of money, especially events where people ask for personal-size cakes for guests to take home.

A-also please share your ancient Spanish sugar cookie making secrets because the ones on your site look great

[Anonymous No.6479808]

>>6478007

[Anonymous No.6479826]

>>6476629
If you're flexible, and cater to people with allergies or food sensitivities to some extent, then yeah. Definitely. I haven't eaten cake in years, and that looks pretty neat.

Warning on the allergies, you have to know what you're doing. Even people who's response is not outright anaphylaxis, they can tell.

[Anonymous No.6479854]

>>6479826
ive turned down offers of that kind i dont know the right products and dont wanna risk it.
hopin to do a course por somethin to learn later on.

[Anonymous No.6479858]

>>6476669
How'd you make the roses ? Is it cream or fondant ? I will make a cake for my niece in two weeks (5 year), and this could make her really happy.

[Anonymous No.6479863]

>>6479854
It's definitely a massive market to tap. There's a demand I don't think is immediately apparent. You could definitely interest a few people by casually tacking into an ad or something a statement about that.

[Anonymous No.6479864]

>>6479858
Think he said the floral cake was buttercream.

[Anonymous No.6479865]

>>6479858
the cream is calles buttercream, its very easy to do, hundereds of recipies online, look for the ones that use the lowest amount of butter, and keep it in the fridge after u decorated the cake.

[Anonymous No.6479868]

>>6479865
And you make these beautiful roses with buttercream? How did you form them ?

[Anonymous No.6479870]

>>6479863
yeah im gonna make it a priority to learn how to bake those cakes, thx for the advice.

[Anonymous No.6479874]

>>6479868
use a pippin bag and the right tip, go to any place that sells bakery related things and ask for a tip to make flowers.

[Anonymous No.6479896]

>>6476629
Make cakes for faggots and dykes. Apparently they get upset when you deny them their basic, fundamental right to baked goods.

[Anonymous No.6479912]

These ER stories are really unterrated.
I was once told about this guy who, while gardening, sat accidentally on a carrot. Which was stuck. Accidentally. As he sat. While gardening.

[Anonymous No.6480477]

>>6480409

You'd be surprised how easily large objects can be inserted into the anus. Ask your mom about it sometime.

[Anonymous No.6480508]

>>6480480
hilarious

[Anonymous No.6480555]

>>6480409

I'm an ER nurse. People come in with shit stuck in their asses all the time, and pretty much always use them excuse of accidentally sitting or falling onto it. We know you just put it up your ass dude.

[Anonymous No.6480660]

>>6480480
I'm not surprised. I just find the justification hilarious. And about my mom, i would not be surprised. She has to compensate over your tiny dick.

Sense it does seem like opening a bakery is viable, I would suggest getting an accountant or someone to help you walk through the process of starting a legitimate business. There's all kinds of regulations you have to follow, and opening a brick & mortar store is expensive, so focusing on controlling costs is vital.

How are you getting your customers now? It is primarily through your website or word of mouth?

[Anonymous No.6480748]

a free add site in spain, an i studied accounting an business management, so im goin to go in with a full out detailed report, i justo wanted more opinions than friends an familiy.

[Anonymous No.6480839]

>>6480748
That's good. A lot of people start businesses and don't know how to manage anything. Keep in mind that you won't be making any profit for awhile. Good luck OP.

[Anonymous No.6480971]

Thanks man apreciate it.
Also, to the guy who asked me for the cookie recipie, its almost identical to this one http://www.completelydelicious.com/2014/02/easiest-sugar-cookies.html i use 450g of flour, 226 grams of butter and 200g of sugar instead, that gives me around 20 cookies, but the directions are the same.
