Cake Size Guide 

 

What size should my cake be?

It’s a seemingly straightforward question: what size should my cake be? There are so many factors to consider before making a final decision, everything from what size portions you will be serving to how many guests will be attending your event. Below are a few suggestions for what size Cake you should order according to how many guests you have, and what portion size you will be serving.


WOW your guests

Having an artificial cake is a possible solution if you want an elaborate Designer Cake to show off as a stunning centrepiece. A Designer Cake is like the exclamation point at the reception and it should be a total reflection of your style and taste. A combination of edible and artificial tiers could be an ideal solution. 

The trend in Cake Design at the moment is to make the tiers higher and more narrow, so the cake looks a lot taller. It will have more impact in the venue and a lot more ‘WOW’ factor.
