Wedding Cakes

do a cost comparison....small cakes (depending on size) and cupcakes are more labor intensive...thus more expensive....also I know a lot of pastry chefs who HATE people to ask for fondant cover cupcakes....it is not fun at ALL, especially when swiss dots are involved.

I can believe that! I'm all for a nice (not extravangant) wedding cake, a groom's cake, and whatever type of cake in the background. I've been looking at a few places where the price includes the wedding cake, and have been wondering how nice they could possibly be. There's a bakery here that is SO good, I know people who changed their wedding date to be able to have Bethel Bakery do their cake!
