Creative Cupcake Displays

A cupcake is by its very nature, adorably delicious. And a group of cupcakes together is a scrumptious sight indeed. So a post on creative cupcake displays may seem a bit like gilding the lily. After all, can a good display really increase the quality of a cupcake? After more than two years doing weddings, and lots of research, I’m convinced the answer is yes.

For proof, look no further then this amazing suspended cupcake tower featured on Hostess With The Mostess. I love how it takes the natural charm of cupcakes and ups the whimsy tenfold.


Speaking of whimsy, I’m convinced these cupcakes in teacups are what Alice would serve at her own Wonderland wedding. I love the literalness of the idea, so chicly executed.

This moss covered branch stand gives the cupcake presentation a rustic, more masculine feel. And how divine do those chocolate cupcakes look? I would like three, immediately.

And finally, sometimes the most creative display hinges on a simple idea, flawlessly executed. This acrylic tower is pretty basic, even with the floral details, but what really makes the display is the matching background and hanging black and white photos. We have lots of brides who want to include pictures of other family weddings on their big day, and this would be a perfect way to do that.
