Hi everyone!

I have a question. I'm going to be building a cupcake stand for a wedding that needs to hold 150 cupcakes with a 6" cake on top. I'd like to do it in three cupcake tiers, with the cake on a fourth tier on top. Does anyone know what sort of dimensions are needed? I'm making large sized cupcakes, and they will be on square tiers.

Thanks everyone.

Jayme

Hope this helps

Thank you. I did see that thread, and unfortunately, it's not quite big enough. My idea is to do square tiers with a center column going down the middle. I just don't know how to calculate the tier size. I do want to make a stand like the one in the link you showed me though, it's fantastic!

Hi, I actually figured out the calculations. I just assumed a 3" sq per cupcake, with a 6" diameter centre for support. I drew that out and added it all up and came up with some measurements. Now I can build a cupcake stand that can hold up to 200 cupcakes!
