Does anyone still make old fashioned cake squares? I received an order for 7 dozen - and I've never made then before! Anyone have suggestions on cutting, keeping them moist, etc?

Are you referring to petit fours? My mom used to make them with poured fondant or poured icing, decorated with little icing flowers. She would level off a sheet cake and then just cut it into squares (or rectangles) with a bread knife. Is this what you mean?

Are you referring to the one-bite mini cakes known as petits fours?

Oh sorry I didn't clarify. Not really petit fors - basically a sheet cake iced and precut into squares (about 2 x 2). I know there has to be a 'rule' as to the size and 'cutting', etc. Since icing is only on the top, I'm concerned that they will be dry.
