I'm donating cupcakes to the Cupcake Camp OC next weekend. We are supposed to bring something disposable to serve/display them on.

Does anyone have any ideas for a simple, cheap display that I can leave behind?

I've thought of just doing cake circles covered in foil or paper as trays but I don't know how much space I'll get and if I should go vertical.

TIA for your help.

Could you use a flat box like a vegetable can flat or something and wrap with cute paper?

Actually you could use your cake circles for the platforms and just cut up a cardboard box for the bracing pieces. Cover in foil or pretty paper so it looks neat. Then you would be vertical AND disposable.

I saw where someone use circles or foamboard, and upside down terra cotta pots (you can paint with acrylic paint) graduating in sizes, inbetween. cheap !
Please post what you decide. Fun

I think I will check into terracotta pots for supports. I have 1 large sheet of foam core and will probably get some cake boards tomorrow. I have red wrapping paper. Maybe I can paint the pots bright yellow, hmmmm......

My cupake papers are black w/white dots and white w/black dots. I'm aiming for a sort of Mary Engelbriet color scheme of black, white, red & yellow.

Sounds great...and you also sound inspired, so you can't go wrong!
Can't wait to see. ~Blessings
