Let Them Eat Cupcakes!

Cupcakes have become an increasingly popular choice at weddings over the past few years, in part because they can be personalized so easily. People are always craving ways to express themselves on their wedding day, and cupcakes provide a great opportunity to do this because there are so many options. Everyone can have their own little piece of cake just the way they like, and since each cupcake stands alone, they look beautiful and pristine.

As a fun alternative to the traditional wedding cake, cupcakes provide your guests more options and are very elegant displayed on a tiered cupcake stand. You can even cater to your frieds who are gluten-free, vegan, or suffer from food allergies. This way, everyone is able to partake in sweet offerings after the grand dinner. Plus, cupcakes are perfectly portioned, providing just the right amount of cake and frosting to put everyone in the mood for dancing.

Customizing cupcakes is a great way to make them fit into the theme of your wedding. You can get little fondant cutouts on the tops or colored sprinkles and frosting to match the colors of your wedding. Flowers are beautiful when placed in and around the cupcakes on the stand, making the display whimsical and fun. Picture a towering arrangement of cupcakes with flowers cascading down the sides and petals gathering around the base. Imagine cupcakes playfully rolled in your favorite cereal–Captain Crunch, Cocoa Puffs, Fruity Pebbles–to bring out your guests’ inner child, or top them with beautiful edible flowers to create a memorable and delicious dessert!

At The Shoppe, we offer three sizes of cupcakes as well as over 35 different flavors, and even offer custom cakes or a gigantic cupcake to go on the very top of the stand so you can still ceremonially “cut the cake.” Some of our most popular combinations include Red Velvet, Strawberry Champagne, New York Cheesecake, and Dark Chocolate & Orange, but there are so many options, you’re bound to find a cupcake flavor perfect for everyone in attendance.
