Cheesecake Factory would charge $65, I would happily pay $35. Real answer is probably somewhere between those two.

$30-40; looks amazing btw 😮💨

I make these several times a year (husband loves them). The ingredients are expensive right now. You would make very little selling one at a price people would pay.

WHATS THAT ON TOP? My husband would love this :3

This looks amazing, but I’m not sure cheesecakes are cost-effective to sell at this scale. You might have better luck making mini ones or selling by the slice. If you doctor up the slices a bit with toppings you could probably sell them for $5 each depending on location.

Don’t ask Reddit for the price. Do the math. Add up the cost of ingredients, your time and the cost of utilities and ect. And as a little extra for your profit.

I would expect to pay £45-55 here in London. But work out your ingredients cost and add on enough to make it worth your while. How long did it take to make (minus chilling time. You can’t count that lol)

What’s the top? Is that caramel or..?

Probably around $65? I’m not a cheesecake person but I feel like that’s the “about right” for an artisanal cheesecake.

Location matters. You could charge close to 100 in a big city. Other places would charge 20-30. Looks amazing btw

i’d say $30 tops! it’s just cheesecake

In New Zealand I recently bought a birthday cake for $70 that wasn’t as nice as this. But it’s subjective.

(Ingredients + your time) * 1.15 is a pretty easy formula.
Your time can be a baker’s salary ($30-40/hr in big cities). I would not count the time it’s baking but all the prep and cleanup counts.
Also there’s marginal but real rent and utilities cost. That gets covered in the 15% profit margin.

No one knows where you live. Like, what kind of currency you even use, let alone what the cost of living is like in your area or what the going cost of homemade goods is like. So none of us can really answer this for you.

If you can’t be bothered to work out the price of ingredients etc and figure it out by GP. Say you get 8 slices out of the cheese cake and charge £4.50 a slice, total them all up and take 20% off

$35-$60

This makes me want to move my jar of cookie butter to the fridge.

Nothing. Looks like trash. Best to hand it to me and I’ll dispose of it! /s 😈

I don’t understand these questions. Where I currently live, butter is $5. Location is everything.

Are you allowed to sell these under local rules?
CheezDustTurdFart
A similar sized cheesecake with that same flavor at a local bakery costs $40

$50 in my city. At least.

My sister used to run a candy shop and made pies, apparently someone in the restaurant industry explained the standard was cost of materials x 3. If it takes you an exorbitant amount of time factor that in too I guess

It looks really tempting and the price really depends on where are you going to sell this in
MichyPratt
This looks beautiful for sure!! 9”, in the Midwest of US, I’d say $40-$50.
A psa: I made a Biscoff tiramisu for Christmas and I added a layer of melted Biscoff cookie butter to the top. I ended up having to scrape it off to eat it. It was just way too sweet. I hope whoever you made this for is expecting this amount of sweetness.

My grocery store charges maybe $10. A fancier grocery would probably charge up to $15/$20 for this cheesecake. A home baker $25 – $30 is decent (if you have the customer base). In the start of it, get them hooked on your quality. Add some gold flakes for pizazz.
For the genius that downvoted me and for future ones. Here is why I said $30 as a midpoint as the product is likely in person instead of mail ordered. My price assumptions are reasonable.
I would pay a solid $50 🤷🏼♂️ looks like the typical “pretty store” cake (in the best way possible!)

Whatever would equal minimum wage, I guess.

60. My neighbor makes cheesecakes and I pay 60.00 for a Tiramisu cheesecake. It’s worth every penny he charges. I know he has half of that in ingredient cost. When people pay 10.00 for a single slice at a restaurant so it’s wild to me that they think 20.00 is fair for whole cheesecake when it costs more than that to make 🤷🏻♀️
