Cake Sizes and Serving Charts
Please see the chart below for cake sizes and servings when trying to determine the right size cake for your event. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. A serving size is a 1" x 2" x 4" slice. The serving chart and sizes below are industry standard. I use the Wilton Serving Guide to determine the amount of servings per cake size. If you want bigger slices, you need to account for that and choose a larger size cake to accomodate the serving size you want.
Please note that all my square and round cakes are two 2" cakes, which are torted to give you 4 layers of cake and 3 layers of filling. These cakes will range between 4.5 and 5 inches tall.
SQUARE CAKES
6" square = 18 servings (cut 3x6)
8" square = 32 servings (cut 4x8)
10" square = 50 servings (cut 5 x 10)
12" square = 72 servings (cut 6 x 12)
14" square = 98 servings (cut 7 x 14)
ROUND CAKES
6" round = 12 servings
8" round = 24 servings
10" round = 35 servings
12" round = 56 servings
14" round = 78 servings
SHEET CAKES
Single Layer, no filling (serving size is 2x2x2)
9x13 = 24 servings (cut 4x6)
11x15 = 35 servings (cut 5x7)
12x18 = 54 servings (cut 6x9)
Double layer with filling (serving size is 1x2x4) (two cakes, not one cake cut in half):
9x13 = 52 servings (cut 4x13)
11x15 = 75 servings (cut 5x15)
12x18 = 108 servings (cut 9x12)
