Hi,
I am making a cake shaped like a book. What size rectangular cake pan should be used for serving 20 people?
Thanks,
Katy

A 9x13 would be great, anything larger will be to much cake

And that would be a single layer 9x13x2 using 7 cups of batter (although you could torte and fill, if desired).

Seven cups is more than one cake mix, so I would recommend making the WASC:

You can easily cut the recipe in half, and it will fit your batter requirements perfectly.

Here's a link to all four of Wilton's baking/serving charts:
