Let Them Eat Cake!!!

So beautiful and so delicious - cake! A wedding cake can also be one area you are confused about how to get the most out of as well. Meaning, what if all of your guests don't eat cake, what if your caterer cuts ginormous slices, what if the cake is supposed to feed 300 but you run out, what if, what if, what if!

There actually is a proper way to cut a cake, and a lot of caterers don't follow this, it's a tremendous pet peeve of mine, because I can get more than 22 slices out of an 8 inch round cake... so there is no reason that a standard 3 tier cake can't fee 150 people! From a 10 inch cake, you should be able to get 50 slices.



Ask your Pastry Chef if you can pay by slice rather than per person, or vise versa depending on where you feel you'll be able to get the most bang for your buck!
