Serving Guide

  • Each slice of cake measures approximately 1.4” by 1.2” per slice.

  • A dessert portion contains 4 layers of cake per slice.

  • A cocktail portion is a dessert portion cut in half, therefore only 2 layers of cake per slice.

  • This is a guide only and the number of serves per cake can vary depending on the person cutting.

Cake Serving Tips

My single tiered cakes are normally 5 inches in height, so it is important to have a long flat blade cake knife longer than the height of the tier to make slicing easier. 

A hot knife makes slicing a cake so much easier. 

If you have access to a kettle and heat proof cylinder, boil the water and pour into a sturdy heat proof cylinder.  Dip the cake knife into the boiling water and clean off between each slice.  If this isn’t available, simply running hot tap water over the blade of the knife and wiping clean with a clean cloth or kitchen towel will also help.

Using a cutting board to transfer the sliced cake onto to cut the servings is easier than slicing each serving of the cake standing.

Care Guide

Place your design on the floor of an airconditioned car and not on the seat. Carry your cake box from underneath, do not squeeze the sides of the box
