How many people does a number cake serve?

About 8–14 per digit, so 15–25 for a two-digit cake. Far fewer than the footprint suggests, because much of the area is gaps between piping.

Number Cake Lahore: Prices, Sizes and What to Expect

Short answer

A number cake is two or three layers of sponge cut into the shape of a digit, piped with cream and decorated with flowers, macarons and fruit. Expect Rs 3,500–5,500 per digit in Lahore. They serve fewer people than their size suggests — a two-digit number cake typically feeds 15–25, not 40 — because much of the footprint is air between the piping.

Number cakes photograph beautifully and are ordered constantly for milestone birthdays. The one thing people consistently get wrong is how many they feed.

How they are built

Sponge is baked flat, cut to a template of the digit, and stacked in two or three layers with piped cream between. The decoration sits on top: piped rosettes, macarons, fresh fruit, chocolate pieces and flowers. There is no covering — the piping is the finish.

Price by digits

Design	Serves	Price in 2026
One digit	8–14	Rs 3,500 – 5,500
Two digits	15–25	Rs 7,000 – 11,000
With premium decoration (macarons, gold)	—	Add Rs 1,500 – 3,000
Letters instead of digits	Same	Same per character

The serving count trap

A large "25" looks like it should feed forty people. It does not — number cakes are mostly flat sponge with gaps, so the actual cake volume is much lower than the footprint suggests. Count 8–14 per digit. If you need to serve more, add a sheet cake in the kitchen rather than scaling the number up.

Summer note

Number cakes are cream-piped and entirely exposed — no fondant shell to protect them. That makes them one of the least heat-stable formats. Keep refrigerated until serving, and avoid them altogether for outdoor functions between May and August.
