                Tip 95: Bake and decorate your own cakes

It is amazing how expensive it is to buy a decorated cake.  It is also amazing how easy and inexpensive it is to make your own cake at home.  All you need is a box of cake mix and a few simple ingredients such as eggs, oil, and water.  Baking and decorating your own cake costs only a few dollars compared with around $18 to buy a 1/4 sheet decorated cake at the grocery store or bakery.

I would put buying decorated cakes almost up there with buying bottled water as a poor use of money.  If you need a lot of cakes for a big event, it might make sense to buy them from a place that has the capacity to make a lot of cakes.  But it seems pretty expensive to buy a single cake unless you’ve forgotten an important occasion and need to get a cake quickly.
