A Stand for Every Occasion

Hello there my cupcake loving comrades
Ok, that came out a little too animal farm for me...
let's just pretend that I didn't just sound like an evil dictator...
who will take over the world...
with sweet sweet cupcakes, MUAHAHAHA...

Ok, I'm back.

Every day I bring you a new and delicious cupcake recipe for you to try at home, which of course is wonderful. But maybe you're like me, and you don't just make cupcakes now and then as a treat for your family...maybe you're the baker in your family... maybe like me, you're the auntie that ensures every birthday, Christmas, Easter and everything in between guarantees some fabulous cuppies. In which case, you probably also feel like your tiny creations deserve more than just a plate to sit out on. If you want your cupcakes display to make just as much of an impact as the cupcakes themselves, look no further.

Check out the marvelous solutions Wilton has got for you! Cupcake stands for every theme party and special occasion. There are some perennial favorites like:

Elmo

 Disney Princesses

 and Mickey Mouse

Already, I can see the wheel's turning in every mom's brain. I totally understand not wanting to spend the money on something that your child likes today and will have completely forgotten about tomorrow, but some things just seem to last for years, and are also a hit generation after generation, from your first to your eighth child (hey, I don't know that 'Kate plus 8' isn't reading this right now).
Wilton also has some stands that are great for holidays like:

Easter

 and Christmas

I love this bunny stand. I just bought it myself and I can't get over how darn cute it is. The bunny is a mini stand that holds 24 mini cupcakes, or 12 standard cupcakes, or painted easter eggs, or cake balls...oh the possibilities!

These are just a few of the 'disposable' stands Wilton makes. They've also got Dora the Explorer, Sponge Bob, Toy Story, Spiderman, and pink princess themed stands, as well as some wonderful stands for life's special occasions, like graduation, baby showers, the big game and 'over the hill' birthdays. These stands pop together in a few minutes, and store back in their boxes just as easily. If you take care of them, these stands will last you for years to come...and for such a minimal investment. The average stand retails for under $20! What can you get anymore for under 20 bucks that you'll pull out holiday after holiday? That's right, just about nothin'!

If you want to go for something a little sturdier, a little more fancy, something that will last forever, they also make metal stands. The Cupcakes N More 13 Count Small Dessert Stand is great for everyday use. It holds a dozen cupcakes and leaves a space on top for your own decoration.

And, in true Wilton tradition, its not just a cupcake stand. How beautiful is this stand as a votive holder. This would make a lovely centerpiece for any occasion, to decorate your table or your backyard. Dontcha just love when something looks like one thing, but can be used as something totally different as well?! Wilton is amazing for that!

Even if you're not interested in purchasing these stands for your own home, you know I've got you covered. If you want to have an Elmo party, or a Dora party...or even just jazz up your Easter egg hunt, you can rent these amazing stands from me, with your cupcake order! Just one more way I want to help you to make your birthdays, holidays and every-days extra special!

Well, I'm sure that's about all the time you can stand for today...get it, stand. Ok, not really that funny. I'll just stick with baking cupcakes.

Until next time.
Happy baking, caking, and tasting!
Love and sprinkles, xoxo
