In my experience, fondant cakes are not more expensive tham whipped cream.
ETA:
It would depend on the bakery I would imagine.

I don't think they are but honestly, they don't taste very good and for kids parties, I would stick to whipped or buttercream... JMO.

generally, they are.... many people don't like the taste of fondant, but obviously, the fondant makes the cake super-cute....
for our wedding, we had the fondant 'glued' on with a tasty mocha buttercream.... so it even tasted good

Re: Are Fondant Cakes more expensive then whip cream?
we had fondant for my DD's christening cake and it was a hit- tasted absolutely delicious- guess it depends on who makes it!
It was not pricey at all.
FM if you need details.
an LIFer made it for me!
I posted a pic for you in your other thread.

I agree. We just ordered a fondant cake for my mother at the Butter Cooky and it was $100. With a regular icing/ frosting topping, it was almost 1/2 the price.
But the fondant was soooo pretty, I just had to get that one.

In my experience if you get them from a reputable bakery, they are a lot more.

Not if you use Sugar Chic. If you saw Ryan's 1st birthday pics, you can see the cake we had- very affordable!
