- Round Cake Portion Sizes // Do you have difficulty figuring out what size cakes to make and how many servings you'll get from a cake? In this video, I share with you my cake serving chart for round cakes. I make round cakes a few different ways, which yield different numbers of servings depending on the technique I use. I challenge you to think outside of the box when it comes to baking cakes and my cake serving size guide will help!

My apologies if you have already shown this. Peace and love 💕

You are so amazing! Thank you so much for this video. This is something I've been trying to work on and muddle through and you've summed it all up perfectly! Appreciate you ♡
You're welcome love! It just takes a little planning in advance so you can figure out what designs you're able to do on different sizes. 😊
You're doing great not confusing at all I actually feel like I can do this
I love this video, really helpful. Downloaded my lifesaver chart.
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this awesome chart. I’ll be using it for my cake orders ❤️

thank you so much for going into so much detail. your tutorial was so helpful. I love how you showed the differences between your cakes from back then and now. such a biiiiiiiig improvement hopefully ill get there one day.
You're welcome love! And remember, we all start somewhere. Everything gets easier with practice.💜🙏
Thank you!!! This helped me a lot! I totally understand your chart!!
I'm so glad I didn't confuse everyone!
I found your channel and I'm so happy! Thank you for all of the good information, especially batter amounts. I'm one that needs to get away from the boxy-looking wedding cake style. And, I only use Fat Daddio pans, too!
You're welcome Laura! Start thinking outside that box! 💜🙏
Excellent video! Very very helpful! Thank you so so much! You are AWESOME! ✌🏽💛💯
You're welcome honey! 😊😊
Youre awesome!! I would love to see how a cake is cut when its this tall (and beautiful!). Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge!
You explained it perfectly. The chart is easy to read.
Thank you Leslie! ☺️
This was incredibly helpful!! I have been making myself crazy trying to work numbers on a cake to get the servings and have the cake aesthetically pleasing at the same time. I’m so happy I watched this. I’ve turned down two tier cakes before when I thought it wasn’t possible mathematically. AND, I love your concept with not making anything larger than 8” to serve 30. I’ve made some big ass single tier cakes haha. I love this!! Thank you 💕💕💕
Yes! I think people get in their head that having 1 tier will be much cheaper. In my experience, I can bake, fill and ice a round cake with ease, so doing 2 tiers instead of 1 really isn't a big deal. And short / wide cakes look DUMB! LOL I had a girl insist that she wanted 1 tier 8" cake with an owl and a #1 on top. And I told her that there was going to be a lot of extra space because the cake was too big for the toppers. She didn't care. And then she didn't like the cake but couldn't do anything about it because I warned her!
Hi Karolyn! I can't thank you enough for creating this video. Not confusing at all; you broke it down perfectly. It has been SO confusing trying to make sense of other bakers' guidelines when it comes to cake servings and sizes. You are the first creator I have found that has included servings in regards to torted cakes! All others I have seen use 3 and 4 layers of cake per tier and I just couldn't wrap my head around always making such tall cakes. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! (Also, I was watching this video while doing some research for a friend's wedding cake, and your little p.s. about wedding servings was right on cue ;) just so, so helpful)
This makes me so happy! I know everyone does things their own way, so you just gotta find the way that speaks to you the most! Glad it was helpful 😊🙏
Your chart is excellent. Your explanation was very clear. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!😊 🙌
Awesome, informative, cake sizing video! My go to video when I’m determining cake size/servings. Thank you again for knowledge sharing!
Glad it was helpful!🎉
Youre my savior, I've been trying to understand cake portioning and you made it so much easierr tsym
Glad I could help!
Thanks so much Karolyn for this detailed explanation - it's a fantastic guide for beginners and experienced cake decorators alike (who may have gotten stuck in that boxed way of doing things)!! You are so sweet to share such detailed knowledge - not many cake bakers/decorators would share their expertise with others - so once again God bless you for that!
Glad it was helpful! 😊🙌
Incredibly useful information! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!🙌
The way you have explained this has answered a ton of questions in my mind. It was so simple explanation that gave me so much understanding. Thanks so much
You're welcome honey!😊
You give the best tutorials.
I appreciate you Debra! ☺️☺️
Thanks for sharing your serving chart
I so understood that video and chart. I’m going print it and save it for future references. I’m one that stays in the box and have all of my tiers 5 inches, but the different heights makes it intersects and the cakes look so good!! I can’t wait to try it out.
Yes! We get stuck in this box but there are so many other options! 😊
I’m new at baking cakes and started selling them a great weeks ago. This is brilliant! I’ve already used it twice and just watched your video a couple days ago. Thank you so much!
Wonderful! You're welcome honey, good luck with the business!🎉🙌
I’m just now watching your video and it makes total sense to me!
I'm glad it's not confusing!
Oooh dear, you are fantastic.. thank you very much.
I'm in Tanzania, Eastern Africa, and actually get clear what you teach. Thank you very much 😍
This is wonderful, Agatha! I’m so happy it helped you! 😊🙌🏼
The way I binge watch your videos is crazy lol. Your work is truly art! I’ve definitely learnt a great deal from you! Following you on all your social media channels. Lol
Nicoleeee! Thank you my dear!! 😊💜🙏
OMFG! I love your chart! Much easier to understand. I love that you include serving sizes for each layer, instead of the entire tier. AND you include serving sizes if you tort the layers. Amazing! Gives you a better idea of serving amounts if you are using different size pans. Love your videos and I am SO glad I found this one!!!
Yayyy! I'm so Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video. This is the BEST video I have found on this topic. I love how to put the chart up along with the cakaes b4 icing them and after. This is exactly what I needed to see.
This is wonderful, I’m so Glad it was helpful!

Wow , this was the best. You are awesome..thank you for your time, I have learned so much from you...what a blessing you are. God bless..❤❤❤
Glad it was helpful!
thank you for doing this video. I am so used to doing the standard 6" and 8" to feed 32 ppl, and now with your chart and how you explained it, it makes so much more sense. I will definitely be playing around with the different sizes to make them more interesting. I love your content. thanks again from a fellow home baker.
You're welcome honey, glad it was helpful! 🙌
This video was so helpful, thank you for sharing.
Yes! You’re welcome 😊
I’m so glad it wasn’t confusing and I could get my point across!
You explained that perfectly. The chart and the cake pics together were great. I am a visual learner and that will save me a ton of time in the future.
Glad it was helpful!🙌
@@KarolynsKakes small world, I grew up in Feasterville back in the day. I saw you are located in Bensalem.
My first Pan I bought is a fat daddio and I love it. ❤️ glad my favorite UA-cam lady uses them too
They are the best! And you're the sweetest, thank you honey!
This has been helpful! I'm a new subscriber, finally starting my cake and treat business after years of doubts and a couple under charged cakes🤦♀lol Thank you, your work is also beautiful!!
You're welcome! Good luck with the new business! 😊🙌
This video opened my eyes! Thank you so MUCH!! I have been looking for a chart to use, the Wilton chart didn't ever seem to work with my cakes!
You're welcome! 💜🙌
Thanks for this! Let me print now
Your videos are always so wonderful and simply said and explained. For the more experienced decorators we can understand your serving sizes but for the beginner they may not understand how you come up with those numbers as far as cutting. Have you thought about doing a video on showing how you come up with those amounts by cutting a cake for a visual purpose?
I actually have a few cakes in my fridge and will be filming that some time this week. So I will be showing a 3 layer 6" soon!
You did a good job explaining because you had visuals and I’m a visual learner. I so just winged it. I love, love cake decorating and I’m passionate about it! It’s my outlet. I will go on forever….😊 Thanks
Thanks girl! I tried putting as many pics up as I could to help explain it!
So today I really sat down and watched this over and over (because I'm visual) but just so you know that it made sense. I love the different visual affects when you adjust your sizes, never thought of that before :-) Thanks
@@louiselemon9717 Yes! Think outside of the box! 💜🙏
Very informative … you are the best 🥰

You are too hard on yourself! You explain things perfectly ❤️. I have learned so much from you 👍
Thank you love, I appreciate you!
I can't thank u enough for explaining this.. I have just started selling cakes and I get confused with cake sizes and servings all the time.. This makes it so much easier for me and my clients..bcs i think i confuse them as well.. lol. and i haven't commented on any video EVER.. bt this content made me.. thanks again
Awwww Rupendra! I'm flattered, Glad it was helpful!🙌😊
Love you videos they are all informative
Thank you! 😊😊
Thank you saying hi from Jamaica ❤️
Hey there! You're welcome, I love Jamaica, I wanna go back!!
Love it!!
Great break down!👍🏻
Glad you liked it!
I've been looking for this for so long, now I have to familiarise myself ith the chart and recipe conversion to different pan size. Thanks
You’re welcome!
Thanks you this help so much
I love this. Thank you! Can you show us what a cut slice of cake looks like? What is a usual size, compared to deck of cards as an example.
I’m confused slightly but I also understand and I love that I have a new way to do cakes for maximum visibility ~ Thank you ❤
There's a bit of a learning curve with it, but it's good to know you can think outside of the box for visual interest!
love this video thank you thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have to print your chart. I love your videos ❤️
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you ❤
You're so cute! You explained everything perfectly ❤️
😊💜🙏
You are amazing and so informative. :)
Thank you honey! ☺️☺️
Thank you so much for that detail explanation. Just want to check roughly how tall is your cake layer (after baking) in general? And do you happened to have a cutting guide for these serving sizes? Thanks in advance 🙂
Thx 4 this video!!!!🥰
I guess my next question would be how do you determine what a serving is? Like how big are your servings!m? I would love to see how you would cut a 2 layer cake versus a 3 layer of the same size. (Like baking two 6” cakes, but one being 2 layers and one being 3 layers and seeing how you would cut that to get your servings on the chart😅).
As always, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!! God bless you!🙏🏼❤️
I'll have to film this when I get the chance!
@@KarolynsKakes Karolyn, hi!! thanks for this awesome video. Same as this other person, I was wondering if you uploaded a video of cutting a cake to further explain this. thank you!!
Lol! The answer to your "why don't they have odd sizes on the Wilton chart"... Because they don't sell the odd sizes other than the 9" pan. (I used to be a Wilton employee) The chart was made (forever ago) only to give you a guide to what pan sizes they sold. I'm old school with my 6-8-10 4" high cakes, (2" high cakes, 1 filling) but after watching this video (and others of yours) I'm inspired to go outside of my box and try some of these other ways of stacking to make my cakes more unique. I always assumed that even if you go higher, the diameter of the cakes are still the same, and the Wilton chart was based off of an industry standard 1"x2" slice. So I could never figure out how people got more slices off the taller cakes. Cutting them smaller to allow for the height does make sense. I'm exited to incorporate the new sizes in the coming year! I already have 5" 7" 9" 11" 13" pans, but never use them, lol. Thanks for your great videos! Always look forward to the next one coming out.
Tracey! Thank you!! And that's good to know, I know that chart has been around forever so there had to be a reason why the odd sizes were missing. I always baked even sizes until I got the odd ones. Now 5 / 7 is my most popular size!
And one time I was at a party and was cutting one of my cakes and we got almost 20 servings out of a 6" round! There are always people who just want a small piece. And I feel like Wilton's chart is very generous. I never get complaints that there isn't enough cake.🙂
Thank you so much for the birthday cake guide. Great tips. Your cakes are so clean and beautiful. Do you have a video of the Layla cake? I wanted to see how you did such bright colors for the paint splatter. That paint really pops! Thanks again. I look forward to your videos.
Go to my channel, click the community tab, and scroll all the way to the bottom. It shows the colors I use for neon colors. And also there is this video on the technique, the colors I use are linked in the description :)

@@KarolynsKakes thanks!
Thanks!!
Love your videos!!! ❤ Do you have cake cutting guides to go with your cake serving charts? How do your clients know how to cut to get your servings? What are the sizes of the servings? Keep up all the awesome videos, and thank you for sharing your knowledge! ❤
And NO you are not confusing anyone - you couldn't have explained it any better :)
I love, love, love your videos! You are a sweetheart for sharing all your tips and tricks! Question. When you make a 3 layer cake, ( 3 layer 6 inch for example)do you use any supports within that 3 layer cake or just layer the cakes on top of each other?
Thank you Dawn!
When it's a 2 or 3 layer 1-tier cake, I don't put supports in it. Unless I feel like it could slide on the cake board...then I may put a dowel to hold it in place.
