this i have also posted in parenting. What would you cost 10 pieces at in a plastic container with cellophane and a ribbon. I am making more than one container but after a price to sell per container . It for a cake stall for a fundraiser for our local school. I am wanting to price it as the person running the cake stall wouldn't have a clue and i would be disappointed if it was sold too cheap

Just put a nice price as you see it especially if you making it simply out of LOVE !
Next time shopping, check out the different prices from supermarket to specialist - Gourmet choc-sweet stores.
Also depends on the size but the average sizes for 10 pieces would make it quite a larger than normal given sized amounts.
Suggest perhaps for $5, have 6 or 7 pieces about 2cm cubic allround size. 10 pieces is looking at a figure where change is required unless they are quite large say 2.5cm cubic then $10 would not look too much.
Quality is a key for pricing and only you know this and the need to be very honest.
Cheers and hopes this helps.

i make russian fudge for our school fair. I cut one batch in 48 pieces (I pour into a rectangular container, and cut into squares 8x6).
six squares go into a cellophane bag, and sell for $3 a bag. (decile 10 community)
I would have two comments: Not sure why you are investing (code for : paying for) a plastic box plus a cellophane bag - and 10 squares is quiet a large serving. so, you should be charging around $5.50 per bag.
but not sure I would pay that much . smaller bag would sell for the same cost per square.
There is a premium which fudge attracts a premium. most people can bake a cake. not every one can make fudge The reason why I make fudge is the ratio between cost of ingredients and the price when sold
Cost of ingredients for one batch of russian fudge - around $4.20 price when sold - $24
I can't do that margin when I bake a cake
