Need a cake tomorrow that will serve 50 people...was thinking either a single layer 16 round cake w/ a half ball on top done up to look like a ladybug, or a 12 x 18 sheet cake that has the ball bug as well...will that be enough, and will they be able to cut the 16 inch round like they would the sheet cake? Need a response or so ASAP...baking tonight. I think I saw where the 16 inch 2 layer will serve 100 people, but that would be wedding cake servings...would like to give them a better serving than 1/2 of a wedding serving, but trying not to do too much cake either...or multiple bakings.
HELP!!!!! 
In follow up to my own question...looked at Wilton's cake serving guide...its says 11x15 sheet will serve 60, but that is about 1.5 x 1.8 serving size...not much. I had another link that use to tell me different sizes, but can't find now...Eileen something maybe. HELP!
I was thinking I would be fine with the 12 x 18 as well plus the half ball on top. Been told they always have left overs as is, so should be fine. I don't like doing sheet cakes, but as already stated...not sure they will know the right way to cut a 16 inch round that is single layered...heck, not sure I could do it right. Don't dare my DH, the brains of the business, because he'll take an hour to figure it out, and I will just be all the later getting to bed tonight...since I did no prep last night like I wanted to!
