Cake Size Guide: How Many Does a Cake Serve? (Karachi)

How many people does each cake size serve? A quick guide to Coco 9 cake sizes by guest count and occasion, for delivery across Karachi.

Choosing a cake usually comes down to one question: how many people will it feed? This guide covers how many servings each Coco 9 cake size gives, how to pick the right size for your guest count and occasion, and how far ahead to order — all for delivery across Karachi.

How many does each cake size serve?

Every Coco 9 celebration cake lists its serving range in the product title, so you can match the cake to your table at a glance. As a guide:

Cake size Serves Good for
Mini cake with cupcakes 2–4 An intimate at-home celebration
Classic (about 1 lb) 4–6 A small family gathering
Mousse & entremet 6–8 A dinner or small party
Celebration (about 2.5–3 lbs) 8–10 A fuller birthday table
Large & square 12–15 A bigger party or office
Custom, single tier 15–20 A themed birthday or event
Two-tier 25–30 A milestone, engagement or large gathering

Servings assume standard party-size slices. If cake is the main dessert, or you want everyone to have seconds, size up one step.

How to choose by guest count

Count the guests, then pick the range that comfortably covers them. For 10 people, a Celebration cake (serves 8–10) works if cake is one of several sweets; choose Large (12–15) if it's the centrepiece. For a children's party where slices are small, you can often serve a few more than the stated range.

By occasion

Birthdays

Most home birthdays are well served by a Classic or Celebration cake. Browse ready designs in Birthday Cakes, or design your own on Customised Cakes.

Weddings & large events

For a dessert table or a cutting cake with numbers, a two-tier cake (serves 25–30) or a tiered design is the usual choice. See Tier Cakes and our Weddings & Events planning.

Office & corporate

For a team, size by headcount and add a few slices — a Large cake covers a small office, and tiered cakes suit bigger gatherings. For branded and bulk orders, see Corporate Gifting.

Cake size FAQ

What size cake do I need for 10 people?

A Celebration cake (serves 8–10) suits 10 guests when cake is served alongside other desserts. If it's the only dessert or you'd like seconds, choose a Large cake (serves 12–15).

How many does a 2.5–3 lb cake serve?

Around 8 to 10 party-size slices — our Celebration size, made for a fuller birthday table.

What size cake feeds 25 to 30 people?

A two-tier cake serves roughly 25–30. For larger numbers, a tiered design or a dessert table is the way to go — see our Weddings & Events planning.

Can I get a cake the same day in Karachi?

Yes, on selected flavours. Same-day cakes ordered before the daily cut-off reach you the same day across Karachi. Custom cakes need two days, and tiered cakes five.
