How many does a 10 inch round cake feed?

A ten inch cake feeds about 12 people if you cut it in wedge like triangles, like a pizza. However if you go to wilton.com and look at the cutting guide, they say it feeds 38, realisticly, more like 30. That is if it is at least 2 layers. and those are uniform peices so everyone gets the same amout of cake. I like this way. it makes the cake go farther and no one eats half a piece and throws away the rest. and if people want more they can always go get another piece.

How do you cut a cake into 16 pieces?

If the cake is circular cut from one side across the top through the middle to the other side. Either cut across halfway between the top and bottom of the cake, then cut at right-angles to the line to make a cross. Then cut across the cake halfway between the arms of the cake, then half way between the other tow arms of the original cross. The cuts will look like spokes in a wheel. Or, if you don't make the first cut, do all the other cuts and then cut between the lines again to divide the existing pieces in half.A Square cake is easier. Halfway across one side of the cake cut across the middle of the cake from top to bottom. Cut across the cake halfway between the first cut and the outside edge of the cake, parallel to the first cut. Do the same to the other half. Turn the cake a quarter turn. Make the same 3 cuts at right-angles to the original cuts. The cake should have a checkerboard pattern with 16 squares.


Cutting a cake into 16 pieces with 5 cuts?

All your cuts will be diameters, which means all the cuts will be straight lines that pass through the center of the cake. Your first cut can be anywhere, as long as it's straight and passes through the center. But to make things easy, make your first cut vertical. You now have two equal pieces. Then rotate the cake 90 degrees and make a second diameter cut. It will be perpendicular to the first cut. You now have four equal pieces. Now, rotate the cake 45 degrees and make a third cut through the center. After doing so, rotate the cake 90 degrees from the last cut and make a fourth cut. You should now have eight equal pieces. By now you should be getting the idea. You have to make four more cuts. Each cut should be through the center and should exactly halve the eight slices. This will produce 16 equal slices. By the way, having the interval is a good way of cutting up a square or rectangular cake, too. Every cut should halve the remaining pieces. You start by cutting the cake in half. Then you cut the halves in half. Then you cut the quarters (halves of halves) in half, and so on.
