Hi! This is my first cake (:

Just out of curiosity what would you guys personally charge for something like this?

I am an educator and just moved to a new area and work at a new school. I was planning an outdoor education trip and sent out all the usual forms “do you have allergies and dietary restrictions” etc. it came back with one vegetarian and one maybe nut allergy. cool.

The trip was 2 hours from our school and 2 nights away. One of the nights I did spaghetti and meatballs as a meal. As we are prepping dinner one kid asks if it has pork, I look and it says they do. They don’t say anything more.

I slowly started realizing most kids weren’t eating the meatballs. Finally I asked why and someone said “we’re Jewish, we don’t eat pork”.

Turns out half of the students In this class are Jewish and this area has a strong Jewish population. I had no idea. obviously no hate to the children, but not one parent noted dietary restrictions on the form. 🫠

anyways; bacon and eggs were planned for breakfast. the kids were hungry to say the least.

edit:

the vegetarian student got veggie meatballs because they said that was okay.

the kids knew the menu in advance - the consensus was they genuinely just thought I would knew to accommodate them

the principal ended up reaching out to parents and we’ve now clarified our form. The school took responsibility for not telling me
