Modern Wedding: Sweet Cupcake Tower Tips from a CT Cake Designer

Today is modern Tuesday on my Kate Parker Wedding! Connecticut Wedding Cake Designer, Sweet Rewards, shares some tips with us on what to think about when opting for a cupcake tower rather than a cake. Choosing cupcakes or truffles over a full cake is such a fun and modern idea! It can give your guests opportunities to try more than one flavor. Whether served by your caterer or set up as a buffet, they are sure to create buzz and fun! The full expert advice article was featured on my Kate Parker Weddings, check it out here!

As a baker/cake designer, it is our role to help a bride and groom select a cupcake tower that is pleasing both to the eye and the palate.  There are many things to consider.

• Quantity-Depending on how you decide to serve your goodies you may choose 1, 1.5, or 2 treats per guest
• Top Tier..Cake or Cupcake? Do you want to have the classic experience of cutting into a cake? If so, have the top tier be a small cake that you can still cut and feed each other. If not, have two big cupcakes instead which still allows for the tradition of feeding one another.
• Serving-Buffet or Servers? It is really up to you which you would prefer. Both are perfect options for this modern tower!

This tower looks so delicious! I want to try each flavor!
