how many people does a 10 inch cake feed

A 10-inch round cake typically feeds between 20 to 45 people depending on the size of the slices and the occasion. For party slices, which are smaller, it can serve around 24 to 28 people, while for wedding or larger slices, it may serve up to 38 to 45 people. Event style or more generous slicing can adjust these numbers slightly.

Details on Serving Sizes for a 10-Inch Cake

  • For normal party servings, a 10-inch cake is often cut into slices about 1 inch wide, serving 20 to 24 people.
  • If slices are narrower at about 1/2 to 3/4 inches wide (party size), the cake can serve 24 to 28 people.
  • Wedding or larger size slices can serve around 28 to 38 people.
  • In event-style cutting (more optimized cuts), a 10-inch cake can serve as many as 39 to 45 people.
  • Multi-layer cakes (e.g., 3 or 4 layers) can increase the total number of servings without increasing the cake diameter.

These estimates vary slightly based on slice width, cake height (number of layers), and cutting style, but generally a 10-inch cake serves from about 20 up to 45 people.
