Cake
Serving Guide
Choose the right size and portion for your celebration — from an intimate cake to a full-height showstopper.
How the servings work
Dessert serving — a generous slice, roughly 2″ × 1″. Best when the cake is the main event and served as dessert.
Coffee serving — a smaller taste, roughly 1″ × 1″. Common for weddings and functions where cake is served alongside other food.
Short Cakes
Two layers, cut into classic wedges. Perfect for smaller gatherings and everyday celebrations.
| Size | Serves wedge slices |
|---|---|
| 4″ | 4–6 |
| 5″ | 6–8 |
| 6″ | 6–10 |
| 7″ | 10–14 |
| 8″ | 10–16 |
| 10″ | 12–20 |
| 12″ | 20–28 |
