Leticia: Ooh, that cake looks wonderful. How many people does it serve?
Clerk: This one? It has three Layers, and it serves between eight and 10 people, depending on how you Slice it. If you like chocolate, you may like this one over here with the Frosting and Sprinkles.
Leticia: Oh, that looks good, too. Hmm. It’s so hard to decide. Why don’t I take the layer cake, and I’d like a dozen of these cookies, too.
Clerk: Our cookies, muffins, and Scones always come in Baker’s dozens. Can I get you anything else?
Leticia: I think I’d like a bag of those Biscotti, too.
Clerk: Sure, no problem. Would you like the cookies and biscotti in the same box as the cake?
