Cupcake wedding cakes are perfect for a fresh spin on the modern wedding or the playful bride. Cupcakes wedding cakes can be simple, modern, french couture chic, vintage or traditional. Cupcakes are usually placed on a ceramic, tiered display and can be a simple dessert for the reception- however, there are cupcakes that are fantastically elaborate.

Does this Spark an idea?

1. Beach Wedding Cupcakes

   • For the shore-theme wedding, chocolate or vanilla cupcakes iced with Swiss meringue butter creme is a unique desert choice for your wedding. Place small sugar pearls and a tiny paper umbrella in each of the cupcakes for a seaside look.

   Gourmet Mini-Wedding Cupcakes

   • Instead of a large wedding cake, serve a variety of bite-sized, take-home treats. Mini-cupcakes are a fun way to offer guests different gourmet flavors, such as french vanilla, chocolate creme eclair, strawberry shortcake and raspberry shortcake. Guests will enjoy the variety.

   Eco-Organic Wedding Cupcakes

   • Serve organic wedding cupcakes. Have a wide variety of cupcake flavors available for guests, all baked with organic flour, milk, eggs and icing. Add small locally grown berries that tie in with your theme--such as raspberries, strawberries and blueberries--on top of the icing. Present the cupcakes in eco-friendly cupcake holders(1).

   Tiffany's-Inspired Cupcakes

   • Tiffany's is known for sophistication and beauty. Bring this elegant look to your wedding dessert. Serve vanilla cupcakes with light teal-blue icing and a white sugar heart on individual cupcakes. Place your Tiffany's-inspired cupcakes on a beautiful, white ceramic, five-tier rotating display for an elegant presentation. A variation of this look is to include dove grey sugar pearls laced along the icing for the ultimate sophisticated look.

   Birdcage Cupcake Holder

   • For the outdoor or modern-vintage wedding, use a decorative bird cage to present mini chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. Place the cupcakes on three tiers and rotate the tiers to place each cupcake into the bird cage. When serving, simply rotate the tier and give one to each guest.

   French Couture Wedding Cupcakes

   • French-themed cupcakes are an elegant desert choice for a wedding. Use vanilla-flavored cupcakes with vanilla creme icing, place them in ornate, black lace cupcake holders, and add two creme de pirouline cookies at the top of each cupcake.
