It doesn't feel like it—especially if you look at those standard estimates suggesting about a third of a pound per person.
Oh, and here's a random little fun fact I stumbled upon... apparently, folks down in the South average about a tenth of a pound of sweets per head, while people out in the Midwest can easily polish off half a pound.
Well, we actually went around asking several local bakeries, and they all gave us the same answer: one kilogram—roughly two pounds—of dessert is plenty for ten people. That’s exactly what we just settled on a few days ago over at a sweet fairy tale shop; basically, two pounds covers ten guests.
