It’s easy to see why cupcake towers are so popular at weddings, events and parties.  There’s no cake cutting required, and guests can feast upon cute little desserts without ever lifting a fork.  Visually festive and fun, cupcake towers can be customized to match party themes and colors.  Cake toppers can be added to cupcake towers for extra appeal.  They make wonderful centerpieces at dessert tables, too!  See for yourself in this collection of our most colorful, creative and festive cupcake towers.



Birthday Cupcake Towers

There’s nothing like celebrating a birthday, especially when you can add your own personal touches.  This cupcake tower was created for a Sweet 16 luau party.  Our tiki cake topper is surrounded by sculpted bamboo.  He looks down on brightly colored pink velvet and chocolate cupcakes that match the colors of the cake topper. Want to try some of our pink velvet cupcakes for yourself?  Come visit our retail store, Pink Cake Box Boutique, and take some home today!

Cupcake liners come in many different colors, styles and patterns.  Our Teddy Bear Picnic cupcake tower was coordinated perfectly for this 1st birthday party!  Gingham liners match the picnic blanket of the sculpted teddy bear cake topper, and each cupcake features a picnic pal in festive colors.
