In large cities there are gorgeous little chi-chi shops selling extravagent cupcakes, but they have committed on a large scale. I don't have the nerve or the drive, and Aylesbury is more of a Greggs Bakery location.
why don't you make two identical cakes, and let one be sliced and served as you're doing now, and have the other on display for a fair price. Say on a card, if you like the slice, you can have the whole cake for $X. This will help me make more cakes. You have a customer/fan base captive at the school and maybe you can get your avocation subsidized.
