This Wilton site http://search.wilton.com/?q=Batter will give you a good start on this. Just click on the topic best suiting what it is you are wanting regarding batter amounts, then go from there. They have information about buttercream and fondant amounts too! thumbs_up.gif

Thanks. I ve checked their site for the fondant before, I just wondered if Wilton was pretty much the same as every one else's ?
It's close enough Im sure.
Thansk again

Where can I find the 'how much fondant' info?! All I found on the Wilton site was in the discussion forum and the question hadn't been answered. I'm doing my first wedding cake (five tiers, YIKES!!) soon and really need to know how much to make! Thanks!

Congratulations on your first!

Earlene Moore has a fondant chart on her website www.earlenescakes.com HTH

Also let me make another suggestion-use the SPS for stacking/transporting if you don't already! icon_biggrin.gif

Hey, you guys filled in the info I needed too! I also am doing my first wedding cake, but I don't know yet if it is four or five tiers... Eek! Depends on if they're going to save the top tier...
