Hi all. I need help with the truck cake I'm doing this weekend. I have baked 3 11x15 sheets and a 9x13 as well to carve up. The cake only needs to serve approx. 20 since the price was based on the design more so than the servings. Those of you who have done these cakes, what measurements did you use to make it look proportional? Thanks a bunch!

When I have to do a "real" thing in cake, I google the dimensions of the actual item then scale it down (approximately)
