Its my daughters birthday party today. Rather than not having any cake, I'm going to have a small piece. Any hints on calories? Its a single layer, 9X13" vanilla cake with buttercream icing.

    There is various cakes in the database. I usually go with the "Grandma's" one, just because I like a Grandma's cooking! ;)

    From other cakes it seems that 250-300 calories is about the norm (when you look at the servings per cake, they are pretty small pieces).

    Just one.

    I would estimate 300 just to be on the safe side. I wouldn't get too hung up on it though. Enjoy the birthday party!

    I agree - have a decent-ish slice and call it 300. Its birthday cake. Its all good :) enjoy! x
