Hi, Does anyone know of any cook ways to display some cupcakes for a friend, we are going out for a small family dinner and they will be carried out to our table after dinner?

how many cupcakes?

the one thought I had was to make a pan of mini cupcakes and put a flower or a pecan or something on each one so even if they are all carried out on a plate the different heights create interest -- plus adding some strawberries or Hershey's kisses adds some pizzaz -- I love a footed plate too -- I mean a plain loaf cake takes a step up if placed on a footed plate -- kwim --

maybe something like that -- of course some flowers or pets on the plate too depending on the occasion -- but stuff like that maybe --

also -- I love paper lace doilies -- they will scallop any size plate -- I cut them in pie shapes like in quarters or sixths and pop a roll of tape under them to keep them in place -- always looks good -- 

cut off the top of a styrofoam cup and use the bottom, upside down, as a pedestal to elevate the cupcake in the middle of the plate --

Thanks everyone,  it was probably going to be about 12 and I thought it would be good to have a little height,  maybe it the middle to create a little layered look.  But, I was worried it would topple when carried out
