Brand benefit.
Labor and time costs are relatively high.
Huge profits in their own industries.
If you buy from a cake shop, you should look at the brand (the price of shoes with Anta logo is definitely different from Nike) and the location (the price of mineral water sold by convenience stores is definitely different from that of mineral water sold by hotels with the same brand), both of which will have added value.
If you buy a private house, the daily baking amount of the private house is not comparable to the overall store (my data comes from the private house circle around me, and the coordinates are Changsha, but what I said is not necessarily 100% accurate). However, if it is a private house, you can't just leave it open by enthusiasm and hobbies. Everyone should have a decent meal. Cake is the most expensive item in the baking circle. If the daily shipment of private cakes is small and the unit price is low, it is not enough for me to sell them so cheaply, so it is not so easy to go out to work with high salary or go to work. On the premise of ensuring enough profit, the shipment of cakes is not large, so I can only raise the price.
However, there is a problem here. When the price rises, there must be a clear stunt to take, that is, the slogan of private houses focuses on health, and when it comes to bad, it is the root of all evil: cream.
The former vegetable butter contains trans fatty acids, which is not very friendly to human health. Now some vegetable creams are marked as free of trans fatty acids. I'm not sure whether modern technology can really do this. Since there is plant cream, there is animal cream, which is healthy, but the cost is definitely high, so I can sell it more expensive. If animal cream is really used in cake shops or private houses, I like it best as a publicity point. I sell it expensive, but it's healthy!
