Sizes and Slices.
How big a cake do I need?
For most big events such as a wedding or the kind of function where you hire a venue and have a full buffet, I would suggest you only cater for maybe three quarters of the guests, as not everyone will bother with a slice of cake.

These
Fruit wedding cakes come with a free sponge cutting cake.
|
The most popular cake size ordered by far is
a 7”, 9” and
11” the average price for this would be £250 in sponge
or £300 in fruit but phone for prices as it depends on the level
of decoration and the size of the cake.
| Guideline Prices for Cup cakes |
| I actually use generously proportioned
muffin cases and the price can range from £1.50 to £3.00 |
| Guideline Prices for Wedding Cookies |
| These are usually 3.5” – 5” across and cost
.50p to £2.50 |
