What size wedding cake do you need for 100 guests?

It’s one of the most common questions couples ask when planning their wedding cake.

Because fruit wedding cakes are rich and dense, they’re cut into smaller portions than sponge cakes — meaning a cake can serve more guests than you might expect.
Head over to our website to try the cake calculator
As a simple guide:

6” cake → about 12 portions
8” cake → about 24 portions
10” cake → about 45 portions
12” cake → about 75 portions

To make things easier we’ve created a Wedding Cake Size Calculator to help estimate the right cake size for your guest numbers.
