My SIL has asked me to make a baptism cake for her baby. Apparently she invited 90 people (yes 90 - Dh comes from a big family). She is expecting anywhere from 60-75 people to show up (how they are all going to fit in my MIL house is beyond me, but I digress).
She found a picture of a cake she likes. Cake is two tiers. I suggested making it 3 tiers to get enough servings, but she really only wants 2.
What size round pans would look the best and get the most servings?
Would an 8" on top of a 12" look silly do you think? I'm afraid if the top tier is too big, it will not look right. On the other hand, if I only use a 6" on top, what size should I use for the bottom tier?
I will probably make cupcakes to make up the extra servings.
Any help is appreciated 
Cathy - below is a link that shows you the portions of every size and shape cake.
If the link doesn't work - just look at the top of your screen and you will see the word *articals* - click on that and then scroll down until you see *misc* and the cake serving charts are there -
For 2inch and 3inch high cakes.
No, an 8 inch on top of a 12 inch won't look silly - i have used those two size cakes together before. I sat them on a 16 inch board so as it all looked equal from the table up.
Hope this helps you
Bh.
