will this cake look odd?

YeahYeahYeah, 15 April, 2012 at 18:08 Posted on Planning 0 6

I have bought a 3 tier G cake stand like this:

I am having an m&s cake on it wrapped in organza with a big bow and diamante buckle on the front.

I am about to order the cakes and was going to have a medium, a large and an XL

However, the XL won't fit in the bottom so I have to have the large at the bottom instead. So, as people have mentioned that the sizes are quite small, I didn't want large, med, small but instead medium on the top and 2 large ones underneath (plus extra cake bars) Will it look stupid that the middle and lower tier are the same size? Should I go small, med, large and have a few more extra bars?

Sorry, I know it is trivial but the wedding is next week and im panicing! lol

    Not at all, I think it will be fine, and you want to make sure you have plenty of cake to go round everyone!

    Ah don't panic! I wouldn't even notice to be honest - I think it will look lovely! Go for med, large, large - it will look absolutely perfect.

    Thanks, I doubt anybody would notice tbh, not sure I would! I'll probably do a bigger bow on the bottom one or something to try and even it out a bit! I think I am finding things to worry about!?

    I doubt anyone would notice on a staggered stand like that, don't worry!

    With the cake stand like that, like others have said, I think it should be fine! And people will be more fussed about looking at how wonderful you look! So panic not! Smiley smile

    I'm sure it will look fine either way! Though just a thought - I like the top one being small because it emphasizes the cake topper (if you have one). A larger top one can leave the cake topper a little swamped.

    Sorry to throw a spanner, but I'd do small, medium & large with extra bars/cupcakes. Although most wouldn't notice it would bug me (if I was the bride in question!).
