Delicious Chocolate Cake, or How Jac Made 120 Gold in 30 Minutes

If you're looking to make some quick gold, the next few days are perfect for you.

Requirements:
-Burning Crusade Expansion
-A character capable of herbing [Mageroyal] (Can be an alt)
-The Cooking Profession with [Recipe: Delicious Chocolate Cake]

As you know, it's Children's Week until May 7. With every world event comes new achievements. One of the achievements necessary to get the Children's Week: Matron/Patron Title requires the player to eat a [Delicious Chocolate Cake].

This works in your favor because:
1. Players who want the violet proto-drake need to eat the cake
2. Players who want the Matron/Patron title need to eat the cake
3. Not all players are cooks
4. Not all cooks have the recipe
5. People are willing to buy the cakes off the auction house if it saves time (and it does)
6. Some players are putting the cakes on 225 gold buyout in the auction house
7. If you sell them at 20 gold buyout, they'll definitely sell
8. Profit!

Note: You can buy small eggs and mageroyal off the auction house, but if you want to make the most money, you'll farm the items yourself. Inscription + Children's Week has made the price of mageroyal skyrocket.

Alternatively. You can just farm mageroyal or small eggs and sell them on the auction house if you don't have the recipe. =)
