When thinking of weddings or wedding cakes, the two words that come to mind are beautiful & elegant. On the other hand, when thinking of birthdays, baby showers, or graduation cakes, the words fun or cute come to mind. Cupcakes are perfectly suited for all occasions, because they can be both beautiful & elegant but at the same time they are always so cute! There's just something fun or special about having your own mini-cake.The versatility of cupcakes is amazing, which may be one reason why their popularity is on the rise. Cupcakes offer an endless number of ways to mix and match flavors, frostings, liners, as well as a number of different ways they may be displayed. Tiered cakes on the other hand don't seem to have as many display or decorating options, unless you spend thousands of dollars for a designer cake. With the number of different shapes, sizes and styles of cupcake displays that are available, finding a way to display your cupcakes is not a problem.You may be thinking, who cares what it looks like, will it taste good? The answer is, Yes! Generally speaking, any flavor or type of cake can also be baked as cupcakes. It is not uncommon for a stacked or tiered cake to have two or three different flavors, but here is where cupcakes can have a great advantage. With cupcakes one would be more easily able to offer a larger variety of flavors. In addition, cupcakes can make it much easier to identify the different flavors than with a standard cake. Plus, there is no waiting to get to the flavor on the bottom; and who wants to deal with all that mess from cutting and serving?
Speaking of mess, which one of the two would be easier to serve? In this, I am certain cupcakes are hands down, the winner. There is no need to have someone cut and serve, no waiting for all the pieces to be cut, no need to worry about cutting the right size or number of pieces, also no need for dessert plates & forks. Cupcakes make it easy for your guests to serve themselves. They could even be placed individually at everyone's seat, making cupcakes a great wedding or party favor for your guests. Still, some prefer a smaller center cake or cupcake display at each table. This idea can be a money-saver, because it eliminates the need for a floral centerpiece on each table. Cupcakes are also easier to divvy up and send home with family and friends; that is if there are any left!This brings us to one final question. Which of the two is cheaper? Unfortunately, there is no easy answer to this. Here are a few variables to take into account when figuring up the cost for either. How many servings do you need? What does your baker/caterer charge per cupcake? What do they charge per slice of cake? Do they charge more for a variety of flavors? How do you want your guests to be served? How do you want to display your cake or cupcakes? Can you rent a cake or cupcake stand? Would it be more cost effective to purchase a cake or cupcake stand? In general, the opinion seems to be that cupcakes are cheaper!
