How to Make a Wooden Cupcake Stand (8 Steps)
Display your cupcakes for a party or event by placing the sweet treats on a wooden cupcake stand. Cupcake stands allow for a decorative display and provide extra space for serving cupcakes to a large number of guests. In fact, in the last decade, cupcakes have become a popular alternative to wedding cakes at wedding receptions. But just because there may not be a wedding cake doesn't mean the reception will lack elegance and style. Creating a wooden cupcake stand will show off your cupcakes as a beautiful work of art.
