How many will a 3 tier cake feed?

Answered by Jarrod Smith

A 3 tier cake is a popular choice for weddings and other special occasions. It not only looks beautiful but also serves a good number of guests. A cake of this size typically serves about 80 portions comfortably. However, it is important to consider the serving size and the type of event you are hosting.

When it comes to weddings, the size of the cake is often determined by the number of guests attending. For a wedding with 80-100 guests, a 3 tier cake would be an ideal choice. This size ensures that there is enough cake to go around, even if each portion is cut slightly smaller.

At Caked, we take pride in our standard tiers, which are made up of 4 layers of sponge. This means that our cakes are extra tall and can be easily sliced into smaller portions if needed. This flexibility allows you to cater to different serving sizes and ensures that everyone gets a taste of the delicious cake.

It is worth mentioning that the number of portions may vary depending on the type of cake and the way it is sliced. If you prefer larger or smaller portions, the number of servings may increase or decrease accordingly. Additionally, if you plan to serve other desserts or have a dessert buffet, you may not need as many portions of cake.

When considering the size of your cake, it is also essential to think about the time of day the cake will be served. If you are serving the cake in the evening, as is common at weddings, a 3 tier cake is usually sufficient for 80-100 guests. However, if you are serving the cake as the main dessert for a lunch event, you may want to consider adding extra tiers or opting for a larger cake to ensure there are enough portions for everyone.

At Caked, we understand that every event is unique, and we work closely with our clients to customize their cakes according to their specific needs. We can create cakes of different sizes, flavors, and designs to accommodate your guest count and preferences. Our goal is to make sure that your cake not only looks stunning but also satisfies the taste buds of all your guests.

A 3 tier cake serves about 80 portions comfortably and is an excellent choice for a wedding of 80-100 guests, especially if the cake is served in the evening.
