There are 25 of us attending the wedding, but I also want enough leftovers to pass out to people we didn't invite.
Can a kilogram be split into two separate packages, or does it always come as one single unit?
If you know what I mean.
For instance, I have some guys at work who aren't really into sweets, and I’d feel awkward handing them a full kilogram of cookies knowing they'll just throw them away—and wasting food is a shame 🙂. Do half-kilogram packs exist?
I'm asking because I haven't sat down with my aunt, the pastry chef, yet, but I'd like to be somewhat informed beforehand. 😉
From what I've heard, bakers usually count on about 15 ounces per person—though apparently even that is overkill. I'm planning on doing 10 ounces per person and then just rounding the total up.
