I live in a state that pretty much lets anyone who's ever taken a Wilton Class sell cakes to the public.

Hi there Jessica!
Standard serving size for a single-layer sheet cake is 2x2, or 8 square inches of cake. An 11x15 pan serves 35 when cut in this manner, so a double layer would be 70 servings cu ... |
