Wilton 13 Cup Cupcakes and More Dessert Stand is perfect. This cupcake stand takes up very little space, stores easily, and is ideal for 8 or fewer guests.

Medium Party
If you’re taking some cupcakes up to your child’s school or a similar sized group of 18-20 people, the Wilton 23 Cup Cupcake Stand is great. Offering all the benefits of quick clean up and tear down with more cupcakes to display, it’s tough to go wrong with what in our opinion is the best stand to own. It’s the baby bear of stands, not too big and not too small. If you’re going to buy one stand, this is it.

The guaranteed conversation starter, the Towering Cupcakes N More Towering Party Stand (Holds 19) is the most fun of the stands. If your party is more about form and less about function, this is a perfect fit.
