Do you mean the Wilton 3d ball or the soccer ball pan that comes in a half?

Most of Wilton's shaped pans take one cake mix and will serve around 12-15 people depending on how you cut it.

I think it would be about right if you use 1/2 of the ball plus a round (8"-10"? you'd have to line them up to check) for the belly and then cupcakes or something like that for the boobs. That would probably feed about the right amount of people - probably more, but you usually can't get exact servings with cakes like these.

I'd put it on the tshirt pan or carve a 'body' out of a sheet cake. Half of the 3d ball would serve 6-8.
