[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm. Does anyone have any good alternatives for baking a cake for 24? I really want to bake it myself because it’s because a birthday tradition, but we have never hosted such a big group before. No cupcakes please, must be cake![/quote]

Why do you need an alternative? You might be overthinking this.

Get two 9x13 cake pans. Personally I would do 2 boxes of cake mix per pan but 1.5 would be okay too. [b]One box per pan will be way too skinny.[/b]

Lay out the two cakes side by side. Frost with a crumb layer to fill in the crack between cakes then do a thick layer of frosting.

If you wanted to get fancy with it you could bake 4 separate one box cakes so you can do a layer in between. Just as easy but more time consuming. [/quote]

Doesn't a cake mix usually make 2 9" layers? A recipe that makes 2 9" layers will also fill a 9" x 13" pan. For a crowd the size OP is planning on, I'd make two. [/quote]

I guess you can, but it will make a sad 1.5 inch tall cake. [/quote]
