Hello lori698

All recipes can be scaled up or down here:

Both the ready reckoner and the cakeometer are easy tools to use. The ready reckoner is formulated for 3″ deep cakes, the cakeometer will scale up for a deeper cakse so use which ever one appeals to you.
If you are going to use Mrs Jones’ carrot cake as a tier for stacking or carving, she adivses to increase just the FLOUR by an additional 25% to make it sturdier.
Hope this helps.
