I have just started to get orders, actually my first one is due in May. The woman that ordered it, goes in to take care of my 92 year old grandmother. Well, grandma thinks that things should cost what they did back in the 40's. When she found out the cake was going to cost $45.00 her mouth just dropped open. She lives with my mom, and mom told me the other day this woman was there helping grandma with her things, and she overheard grandma telling this woman, "well lif you get jeanne some other orders, she will probably give you a discount on the next cake you order. OMG Laughing GRANDMA, I told mom with her advertising for me I'll go out of the business before I ever get started. Grandma's ya got to love em.
Just wanted to share.
