https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/How-Much-Cake/m-p/81972#M1795 <P>I'm ordering a full sheet cake (18x24) for my son's graduation.</P> <P>There will be leftovers, no doubt, because we're not having a huge GTG, just a few family/friends who will be here from out of town for the ceremony. But I have a 12 y/o son also, and he and his buddies LOVE cake, which I only bake on our birthdays, plus I'll send some home with my mom since her dh has the World's Biggest Sweet Tooth! <IMG src="https://community.qvc.com/DesktopModules/ExactTarget/Controls/TextEditor/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/001_tt1.gif" alt="{#emotions_dlg.tt1}" /></P> <P>When we were planning our wedding reception, we told the cake designer/baker we wanted to have enough cake for 3x3 pieces, and leftovers would be fine. We both hated going to a wedding and getting a one-bite sample size of cake. When I see that a cake 18x24 serves up to 108 people, I crack up! Maybe 108 people who are not cake lovers!</P> <P>Do you 'size up' your cakes, or do you just figure 1.5x2 per serving is fine? I think that's a petit fore ! <IMG src="https://community.qvc.com/DesktopModules/ExactTarget/Controls/TextEditor/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/lol.gif" alt="{#emotions_dlg.lol}" /></P> Mon, 23 May 2011 17:48:14 GMT Zoologist_1 2011-05-23T17:48:14Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Kitchen/How-Much-Cake/m-p/81972#M1795 <P>I'm ordering a full sheet cake (18x24) for my son's graduation.</P> <P>There will be leftovers, no doubt, because we're not having a huge GTG, just a few family/friends who will be here from out of town for the ceremony.
