Preparing Supplies

Well I have my 2nd cake order due this week, and My biggest so far. Its a 3 tier, with a sheet cake. The tier will be a 10,8,and 6 inch. Then the sheet cake is 12x18. Yikes.I have done a 2 tier before but this will be my first time for a 3 tier. Yesterday I went and got everything, and holy cow.. was it a lot...

I need 50 cups of batter, 44 cups of icing and then 15 cups of filling.. I really hope im doing my math right. cause I just got
-25+lbs of powdered sugar.
-60 eggs
-8 boxes of cake flour
-10lb regular sugar
-48oz. Crisco
-15lbs of butter.

If i didn't so my math right. I'm going to have A LOT of left overs...
And now on top of that cake(s). My brothers birthday is saturday and I'm making his cake too.. But dont think im complaining..haha. . Cause this is what I love to do..It can and will be stressfull, but it's so worth it. Tomorrow I start with the gumpaste flowers =) If anyones reading this..thank you! =)
