Stuck on your Centerpiece Flowers? Try Cupcakes!

Team Impresario was down at the Canadian Special Events Society’s Exhibition Tradeshow yesterday (wow, that’s a mouthful!) and came across a rather unique and noteworthy idea.  A cupcake centerpiece!

Yes, if you can’t decide between roses or lilies or cymbidium (that’s orchids, folks) then how about just choosing between chocolate, vanilla or red velvet?

All you need is a unique container (vase or pot), and an assortment of flower cupcakes.  A hidden base, some toothpicks, a few paper leaves and voila!  An edible masterpiece that your guests will be talking about for a while!  (Of course, best to leave it to the creation to the confectionary professionals).

You can match your colour theme, dress the cupcakes up or down with edible glitter and the like…

Or if not for your actual wedding centerpiece, what a fabulous bridal shower centerpiece?  Honestly, where’s the down side?   Pick me one, please!    🙂
