Hey ladies,

I'm sitting here trying to figure this out. I swear I use to be able to give a good guess at this and lately I'm slippin'.

This weekend I have a wedding cake. The pans are 14, 10, and 6 rounds....I'm not sure if I'll use the 2 or 3 inch sides...I'm still figuring that one out. But...how many mixes should I have on hand for that many cakes???


Also.....does anyone have any experience with the Wilton Tailored Tiers Cake Display. This will be the first time I'm using it and if you've had any experience with it I'd appreciate you telling me about it.

TIA,

Chrissy

14, 10, and 6in 2, layers 2 inches high each. I would have at least 7 cake mixes on hand more like 10 in case something goes wrong and i have to re bake, then at least i'm not running to the store.

Each 14"x2" round pan holds 2 cake mixes
Each 10x2" round pan holds one cake mix
Each 6"x2" round pan holds about 1/3 cake mix.

I used the wilton tailored tiers cake display for my sons wedding cake. It was my first and only wedding cake so far,and the reason for what seems to be my obsession for now ( my family swears I have become obsessed with cake!) It was very simple to use.
