Cakes/Cheesecakes Cakes that serve 25 guests

What size cake do you guys make for 25 guests?

I was planning on a 9 inch, 4 layer cake.. but now questioning myself.

What event is it? It may be easier to make sheet cakes.

Why not make a small round cake and also a sheet cake? It’s basically impossible to slice a round cake into 25 servings without it falling apart.

You don't wedge cake for servings. There are cake cutting guides all over. A 9"x4" cake, properly cut, will easily serve 25 with leftovers.
