Wedding Cake Stands – Mini Cakes or Tiers?

Wedding Cake Stands – Mini Cakes or Tiers?

 

cake-standYour wedding cake will be the centrepiece of your reception (after you and your dress!).  Often large, multi-tiered and beautifully decorated and flavoured, the cutting and serving of the wedding cake is often the finale to the reception, so how it is displayed is very important.

There are a huge number of wedding cake ideas available to the Bride and Groom.  Tier wedding cakes are still one of the most popular choices and if you are using a professional baker then they may offer the cake stand as part of the service.

However, many couples look for a way to stamp their individuality on the day.  Individual, mini wedding cakes are one of the most eye-catching ways to do this.

Small, unique and fantastic to look at, there are a number of styles of individual cakes available from cupcakes to fairy cakes or how about mini pavlovas or apple pies?  You are only limited by your own imagination and best of all you don’t need to bother slicing them!

There are several icing options available and you can personalise the cakes with almost any type of colour and theme from your initials to edible flowers or butterflies.  They really do make a stunning centre piece.

To display your cupcakes to their best you will need a proper stand. Cupcake stands can be hired or purchased outright.  Hiring costs can start from around £25 and this doesn’t usually include delivery – some hire companies insist on collection – adding more time and money to an already stretched budget.

The best option is to purchase outright.  Easy to assemble, and made out of clear acrylic, the Ultimate Cup Cake Stand can be used with 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 tiers and holds up to 65 cakes.  Delivered directly to your front door this fantastic cup cake stand is the best way to display your beautifully chosen cakes.

Some things are worth hiring for your big day – like chair covers, table cloths, easels and frames for seating plans.  However, there are some items worth purchasing because it actually costs you less in the long run, looks fantastic and makes a lovely keepsake.

Best of all the Ultimate Cup Cake Stand can be used again.  Think of all those birthday celebrations, anniversaries and Christmas party’s where you will be able to display fairy cakes, treats, mince pies and sweets!
