I'm making cakes for a baby shower this Sunday, and the lady planning the shower just informed me that there are going to be 48 women at the shower, soooo I was planning on a 10in round layered stacked with a 8in round layered. Is that going to be enough? How many do a 10in feed? Thank you thank you for your help.

A standard serving is 1"x2"x4". A 10" round has 38 servings, and an 8" round has 24 servings, for a total of 62 servings. You should be fine for the 48 expected, even if the servings are cut a little bigger.
