1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
Did anyone do a cupcake stand at your DC party? I am planning on getting floral cupcakes for Ella's party as well.
If you did have a cupcake stand did the kids enjoyed it or do you think it was a waste?
Thanks!

The thing she is getting a birthday cake and I am planning on doing a cupcake stand for the kids as well. I don't know if this is too much or not.
Where are you getting your cupcake from?

Re: 1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
I made Lily's cake out of cupcakes for her party because I love cupcakes...and so does she. I didn't use a stand though, because I formed the cupcakes into flowers. I have used a stand in the past though, for other everts, and they looked adorable!

Re: 1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
I bought a Wilton stand off of e-bay so I could use it over and over. It's a 6 tier one and you can change the amount of tiers that you'd like to use. I am going to use it for Jared's birthday next year. Cupcakes are so easy for little fingers.

I used a stand in addition to the cakes, and most adults ate the cupcakes too.

Re: 1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
The kids will love it! We had one for DD's birthday and the kids were able to get them themselves which is what I think they liked.

Re: 1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
The last few parties I have been to all had cupcakes. One party had reg. sized and mini flower decorated cupcakes. I wish I had a photo because they were gorgeous. They were a huge hit and in the stands they looked great.

Re: 1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
I made a cake for DS' party and also cupcakes for the kids. I made a lot of cupcakes because I knew the adults would eat them too -- and the did! They all said eating cupcakes make you feel like a kid!

Re: 1st Birthday Party - Cupcake Stand
I was thinking about doing a cupcake "cake" Lining all the cupcakes into a rectangle and icing the whole top so it looks like a cake, then you just pull the cupcakes apart, no cake slicing!
I dunno, just a thought
