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?

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!

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.

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.

They sell those stands at AC Moore and you could use their coupon. They normally have a 40% and 50% coupon available.

FM me if you need more info.

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

We did. We also got cupcake boxes for the kids to take them home with.

It was a big hit!
