Can anyone help me? I am doing an engagement cake for my sister in about 3 weeks and she wants a two tier sponge cake, 12" and 10". my problem is I like the 'one bowl sponge' recipe in the ISS book but it only goes up to 9" round. Does anyone know how to change the ingredients to fit my tins? thanks and hope someone can help. icon_cry.gif

Here's a link to the Wilton site that will tell you how many cups of batter you need for each size.

I would double your batch, fill your tins and bake. A double batch should be just about perfect; and if it's just a bit much, bake the leftover in a cupcake tin.

thanks to everyone for all your advice, my sisters cake turned out really well I think (for a first time, stacked cake anyway) icon_biggrin.gif
