HELP...someone just called wants a cake for his 15yr daug...princess theme...wants it to look a nice size, but only 50 people invited.

Im thinking a small castle cake?...I really would rather not use a dummy...any suggestions, or pictures of ideas??? and what price would I charge if Im using dummys?

Hi, I would use 10" and an 8" cake. Which will hive you around 58 servings. I follow Lindy Smith's serving guid Even though you use dummy, the price is not going to change, as it take same time to decorate as a real cake and they are cheap.

Here is a link on how to make a castle cake. I don't know the sizes of the cakes. But it says serves only 35. So you might want a bit bigger sizes.
