Has anyone made a chessboard cake? I want to get the chocolate molds to make the chess pieces but the cake only needs to serve 25.

What size square does this cake have to be (minimum) to fit all the pieces?

Thanks.

I made this cake. It's in my pictures.

I used a 12 inch square pan and the pieces fit perfectly on it. That feeds more than 25 but you would just have some leftover cake.

Thank you! Unfortunately I had to make it before I saw this and I made a 10". Hope it all fits, looks like it's going to be tight.

Your cake is terrific!
