Hi Ladies
I am in need of some help on where to find a bakery that can make a great cake, but for a good price. I am trying to plan our wedding on a budget, not sure where prices start at for a cake that will feed 180 people. Can anyone help or refer me to a bakery.
Thank you fellow Knotties!

I called Safeway when I was checking prices and they were pretty cheap...I cannot remember anymore how much it was but you may want to give them a call - I want to say they start at $100. I decided against them because the cake was not made there, just frozen and shipped from somewhere else.
I ended up buying a couple of smaller cakes from Freeport Bakery (we only have 24 guests). They taste good and a 9" round cake feeds 16 people and is $30. The wedding hasn't happened yet so I can't tell you how my guests like it, but I tasted one and it was tasty.
they charge $5.50 per slice for a wedding cake. So just multiply that by 180.
You could also do what a lot of people do and get a small wedding cake for the cutting, and have a large sheet cake in back to serve to people. For 180 people it may be a good idea.
Hope this helps!!!
