Mum fuming at £70 quote for Christening cake but parents brand her 'ignorant'

dailyrecord.co.uk:

mum has been blasted as 'ignorant' after complaining that she was quoted £70 for a Christening cake. The outraged mum said she was stunned at being told a sponge cake with four layers of buttercream icing would set her back £70 and extra for any novelty toppers.

Posting on Mumsnet, she said: "F****** 70 quid for a cake? Quoted 'from' 70 quid for a Christening cake. "This was based on a 6" square cake with 4 sponge layers.

Not tiers. Buttercream icing."Any decs toppers etc would be extra and from 8 - 15 quid!Am i missing something?? How the f does a cake cost that much?"But while the mum thought this price was excessive, other women commented in their droves to tell her that was average for a professional cake.Whoever said parenting was easy.
