A key question used to be how many guests you would need to feed, but now it’s ‘how many can handle dairy?’ That’s why the dessert table option is becoming more popular; a selection of raw, dairy-free dessert options will be popular with the health conscious, and even having a huge bowl of plain fresh fruit salad means everyone can enjoy a treat.
If you do choose to let them eat cake, three-tiers will generally serve 50-100 guests, and you’ll likely need five layers for 200 guests or more.
A great way to save yourself a cake related budget blow-out is to order one small, beautiful, decorated display cake, and enough sheet cake to feed the masses.
