For 140 guests, we bought 50 boxes and only used 35 or so. <br /><br />You need fewer than you might think, because most people come as couples or families and they only take one box per group, in general. And because the cake gets cut at the end of the night, there are some people who are gone already. And then the crazy people who don't like cake. <br /><br />I'd divide your guest count by 4 and order that many. <br /><br />I honestly don't remember where we bought them. We were on some errand and I just searched the map for "cake supply" stores. We weren't in LA, though. Maybe Huntington Beach? <br /><br />In LA, I would check Surfas (and also see if any cake decorating/supply stores are close to you). If you're near Orange County, I know that ABC cakes has always carried them and they're located in Orange.<br /><br />Hope that helps!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819528155575569595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452621549434169941.post-66817507570120343582012-09-10T16:08:46.171-07:002012-09-10T16:08:46.171-07:00Hello!

Just discovered your blog while googling for inspiration for an upcoming wedding dessert buffet I'm doing for a bride here in Vermont; Thanks for the inspiration!

I don't think it was really any different than if we had had one large cake, but I guess I don't have any way to compare!<br /><br />@ Rowena - I semi-made my headband. I purchased some (outrageously expensive, I'll admit) crystal trim from my favorite fabric supplier and then just added elastic. Still debating what to do with it now. It's a little blingy for everyday use!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819528155575569595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452621549434169941.post-76008183807903897532011-11-29T20:31:29.686-08:002011-11-29T20:31:29.686-08:00Lovely!
