How many pieces at the table?

Start with how many people you expect to eat cake and the pieces you want to allow for each. This planning count does not convert to a cake size: the kitchen confirms that from the actual design and serving style.

Example: twelve small-piece place settings.

A bakery confirms the actual recipe, allergens, portions, finish and price. Your visual direction carries to the brief; the personal message is kept only on this page.

12 planned pieces. Ask the kitchen what cake size suits your serving plan.

The count needs context.

Dessert or extra?
Say whether the cake is the main dessert or one part of a larger table.
How will it be cut?
A small celebration slice and a larger dessert portion are different requests. Ask for the kitchen’s cutting guidance.
Take-home pieces
Include any extra pieces you would like to offer, while confirming how they should be packed and handled.
Different choices
Discuss whether any guests need a separate option. Ingredient and allergy questions require direct confirmation.
