Every chart I look at gives me different amounts on pans for wedding sizes. I don't do very many wedding cakes so this is always an issue for me.
I use Earlene's Cakes cake chart for my regular cakes, but if I go by that for a wedding cake it will be too much, right?
I'm trying to make a wedding cake that feeds 100-105. I originally thought 14"/10"/6", but some of the serving charts I have put that combo at 120+.
Any advice would be appreciated!

I use this chart for all my cakes.
6/9/12 will serve 100 if they are serving the top tier. That is if you want round cakes.
Industry standard servings are 1" x 2" x 4" (8 cu. in.).
You can calculate it yourself...
For round cakes:
Half diameter=radius
Radius squared (times itself) x Pi (3.14)=surface square inches
Surface square inches divided by 2 (2" long serving)=servings total.
Industry standard servings are 1" x 2" x 4" (8 cu. in.).

Not at all. (Numbers of any kind aren't my strong suit... I'm lucky I remember my two-digit address.) ![]()

That cake calculator is genius! Thanks!
Thank you for posting the link for the wedding chart, I could only find the party one I knew I had seen the wedding one before.
