A bride requested a 14", 11", 8" stacked cake (round). Will these look okay together? I said I would do it but now that I think about it more I'm wondering if these sizes will look okay... What do you think? Does anyone have any pictured of these sizes together?

Is this request based on servings? or is it just what she thinks looks best? I don't have any pics of what they look like stacked, but you could use your pans empty and stack them to get a better idea of what the differences are with them. icon_smile.gif

Yah... it's based on servings. I haven't purchased a 14" pan yet... but I think I'll go buy one tomorrow and see how it looks. I was just hoping someone had done it before! icon_smile.gif

I've used 14 and 12 but not an 11. I can't see why they wouldn't look right. icon_lol.gif

I HAVE DONE 14 - 10 - 6 TOGETHER AND THE BALANCE LOOKS GOOD

THE 14 - 11 - 8 BALANCE SHOULD BE OK TOO......LIKE MOMMICAKES STATED....STACK YOUR PANS......THAT GIVES YOU A GOOD VISUAL...

It will look fine! One of the cakes in my gallery used 3" different tiers in square - I had to purchase a 9" square pan to make it work. It was 12", 9", 6" I think it was the calla illusion cake in my gallery. Hers was made that way for servings also.

It was the calla illusion cake - I can't seem to link it here for you. It's on the bottom of the first page of my pictures.

I think it will look fine. Each tier will have a 3" ledge, so it will be even.
