My friend is making my cake and using Delia's recipe. We have the proportions needed but need to know what size cake tins we need.

Question continued

We are having three fruit cakes on top of each other, with polystyrene seperaters. We are having 150 people, although don't plan to feed everyone...

Can you tell me what the size of the cake tins you would suggest.

Thanks

Answer:

If you're using the link to Delia's fruit cake from the wedding cake section, then she actually tells you at the top what size tin to use.

I've attached the link again below and right at the top of the article is the tin size. If you're not using this particular recipe, you should still be able to get an idea of what size cake tin to use from the quantities of the ingredients.

I hope that helps!
