Do you have a Wilton yearbook? There is a table in there that has about how much batter and icing you'll need for whatever pan.
10 inch - 6 c batter and about 5 c icing
8 inch - 3½ c batter and 4 c icing
6 inch - 2 c batter and 3 c icing.
Helpful hint - i take a sharpie and write on teh bottom of my cake pans how much batter it takes, oven temp and baking time. I'd never remember otherwise!
You can also look on the wilton website. Just go to cake, then cake preperation, then scroll down and click batter amounts....theres charts for 2" and 3" pans, wedding or party.
i like the idea of writing the amount you need on the bottom of the pans also...
Here's the link to the chart from CC: http://www.cakecentral.com/article14-Cake-Baking-Cutting--Serving-Guide---2-in-Deep-Pans.html

Miriel-Thanks for posting this! I am printing it to put on the inside of my kitchen cupboard for easy reference. I had always wondered if there were guidelines.
