What Sizes Would I Need Of The Square Pan With The Cut Corne
Decorating By BakeLoveMom Updated 2 Feb 2009 , 1:23pm by BakeLoveMom
I was asked last minute to do a wedding cake a week and half from now. They chose the square look with the cut corners. I do not have these pans, however I figured I would just cut the corners off my square cakes. They would like the 3 tiered look with each tier being about 4 inches high. My question is, if they save the top tier for themselves, how big should the other two tiers to feed 50 guests? 10in,8in,6in??? 12in,10in,8in??? I just don't know. I would like party size pieces...Thanks for the help everyone.

I'm new and I'm the most familiar with Wilton...
Wilton's Wedding Cake guide, hope this helps

Somewhere there's also a chart of serving sizes based on pan size. The Wilton one is:
2 inch thick wedding cakes

2 inch thick party cakes

Sara - I have located instructions for the Beribboned Bouquet Cake that is in Martha Stewart's Wedding Cake book that came out in Fall, 2008. My niece asked me to cake this cake for her. I went on line to Martha Stewart.com and someone contacted Wendy Kromer who made the cake for the book and was able to get me some very specific information and then I located the .pdf file with all the details. I will attach the file for you. It didn't include a photo of the cake, but since I have the book I didn't need it. I will email you the instructions since the file is too big to attach. Hope it will help.

Also, if you go to [url]cakedesignsbyedda.com[/url] and look for wedding cake fondant and then to WF-067 you can see what the cake looks like.
Good luck!

Sarah - I had problems attaching the file, so here is the address to find it:

Let me know what you think.
That is so funny ptanyer...that is the cake I am making...Thanks so much for your help. I am switching the monogram to the center tier and making it more scrolly and then the bouquet will be red roses and white calla lilies.
Thanks again,
Sarah
