Question 9

How many people do your cakes serve?

Accepted Answer

Our cakes are sized based upon cutting in a grid pattern instead of wedges. Most caterers will naturally slice your cakes in this way but we will double check! Our standard tiers are taller than average so they can be cut in half horizontally before slicing individually, which allows for more servings per tier. Below are a few examples of how many people our cakes can serve.

6" & 8" - 70 servings
7" & 9" - 85 servings
6", 8" & 10" - 140 servings
