I just got my first orders! I was so shocked! 
I brought a dozen filled cupcakes to work this w/e and got 4 orders. I wasn't even thinking of trying to get orders, they were practice cupcakes for my daughters brownie troop.
My problem is when I brought them to work it was on a 1/4 sheet pan. I can't very well deliver my cupcakes that way. What should I do? I'm afraid if I but them in a cake box they will slide around and bump each other. I have quite a bit of frosting on them-similar to the 1M tip. Any ideas?
By the way I'm such a wimp-I'm only charging $8/dozen. Luckily they aren't too time consuming. I did tell them if they want any additions it would be at .50 a cupcake. Thats fair isn't it?
Hey Elfie,
There's a lot of info in the forums on this topic, one of the more recent threads http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-46146-cupcake.html+dividers
You can also do a search for "cupcake transport" and a whole bunch more threads come up.
Have fun with your orders!
I use those plastic cupcake containers that grocery stores use if they arent tooo high/fancy - i bought them from a catering store that went out of business locally.
Another thing I do if the cupcakes are fancy is I bake them in 2 cupcake liners...then hotglue it to a cakeboard. WHen they arrive at their destination, I just remove them from the outer cake liner, and a cake liner is still on the cupcake. It works great.
Also, You usually can go to a grocery store any theyll sell you their plastic containers - they dont really have a set price so you can work with them. Ive utilized my local grocery stores several times when ive run out or need a certain size cake carrier etc.
I use these cupcake inserts. I buy them from my local cake & candy store.
