Sweet Nothings will use the same production and packaging costs as normal cupcake wrappers. The material used to make Sweet Nothings, potato starch paper, is about $19.00 for 1000 single cupcake sheets. This means that the price of producing Sweet Nothings is about a cent more than normal wrappers (per cupcake). Online, cupcake wrappers are priced at around $12.00 for a pack of 24 wrappers. Sweet Nothings will be sold online for $12.50 for a pack of 24. The additional $0.50 will cover extra material costs ($0.24 per pack) and the remainder will contribute to higher profit margins.
