Ok, so I have a wedding cake due Friday. Yes I know I'm dumb to have left it to last minute, but I was going to do an 8, 10, 12" square set of pans to serve 150. I can't find a 10" square pan. Do I have any other options? What about a 6, 9, 12? I know it's not quite 150 servings but maybe I could get away with it? Suggestions? Thanks!

Can you bake another 12 and cut it down to a 10?

They don't have 10" squares at Hobby Lobby or something like that? I think that's where I got mine.

I've done what teenz said, baked a 12 and cut it down. Works just fine and you don't have to put out the $$ for a pan you won't use often.

here's another vote for baking in the 12" pan and cutting it down. Should be easy, expecially since it's square, just 4 straight cuts.

Actually it's even easier than that--just take 2" off 2 sides. (Think "L") Then you only have 2 side with exposed cake.

Yep - ditto what kansaslaura said...just cut 2 of the sides. (and ask me how I know this??)
