Will this combination work and look aesthetically pleasing for a 3-tiered cake? It gives the number of servings I need using the pans that I have but I'm wondering if the proportions will be okay with only 2" difference between bottom 2 layers. Anyone have a pic of a 3-tiered these sizes? Thanks.

I'm nerdy about it, but I almost insist to myself that I have to have equal dimensions; thus an 8", 12, and a...16 would be my choice. Or 6, 10, 14 is popular, or 8, 10, 12...or...icon_smile.gif

Are you putting the 8" on pillars? If you do then it would look fine IMO. In fact pretty sure it would look fine all stacked together. I would use the extra space between the 8" & 12" for flowers, etc. fill up the space/

Thanks for the replies homecook and cracker. icon_smile.gif

I had planned on stacking them; so maybe I'll go with the 16", 12" and 8".

Realizing I need more pans!

I realized after my post that I had done a cake that had a 8" directly on top of a 12". It is the Esparza wedding in my photos. It will give you an idea what it looks like.
