Hi. I need some help!

I've been asked to make a square wedding cake. What size do you recommend (8, 10, 12) or (8, 10, 12 &16)? Should each tier be 2" or 4"?

Any help and suggestions are GREATLY appreciated.

TIA!
Jen

You didn't mention how may servings it needed to be....that will help us figure out what size you need. I use the Wilton chart to calculate my servings.

Each tier should definitely be 4" high.

Well, that might be helpful, huh?

It should feed 150 ish.

Thank you!

Here's a chart from CC that shows the number of servings for different size/shape pans: http://www.cakecentral.com/article14-Cake-Baking-Cutting--Serving-Guide---2-in-Deep-Pans.html

6,10,14 will get you 148 servings not including the top tier.
If they serve the top tier, it would be 166 servings.

I always give the bride the option on whether to have her anniversary tier boxed separately or from the top tier of the cake.
