Do you really mean a single layer? Or do you mean a single tier (usually 2 layers).

See: http://www.wilton.com/cakes/cake-cutting-guides/wedding-cake-cutting-guide.cfm

Ultimately, it depends on how you cut the cake - what size the pieces are.

I hope I die before "your" is the official contraction of "you are."

Yes...I mean a single layer...will be just over 2" high once torted. That's all they want. Thank you for the links icon_smile.gif

As I remember an 8"x4" serves 25 so out of a single layer I'd say they can get 10-12 servings. If you treat the round as if it were a sq and come in 2" and slice the whole piece, lay it down and cut that into 2" slices you should be 16 pieces. Most people are going to cut it like a pie and then only get the 10 or so.
