Cupcake Centerpieces

Cupcake centerpieces kill two birds with one stone, really! If you have cute little desserts, put them on towers or stands in the center of your dining tables. Sprinkle around some fresh flowers, and votive candles and viola! You're done. No fussy cake, no expensive flower centerpieces, no wait staff needed to cut and serve. When guests are ready to indulge in dessert, they can serve themselves.

You can even include a "to go" dessert container that also serves as a wedding shower favor. Include the to go box at each placesetting, so guests can take one to go.

If you wish to have an official cutting ceremony, then just have your baker bake a small dessert that you can do this with.

Your centerpieces can either be wire trees, or cardboard rounds on a tiered display. For more information about stands, see our cupcake stand section. If possible, we recommend the wire trees as they won't completely obstruct the view across the table. Also most wire stands hold 24 dessert. This means that a table of 8 can each have two muffins dessert, and there will still be enough for each guest to take one home.

Stands can often be rented or borrowed so you're not overwhelmed with the cost of purchasing a bunch of stands at once. You could opt to make your own out of cardboard (they're also sold in kits), this is a much more economical way to go.
