Hosts and hostesses all over the world have discovered ways to have their cake and eat it, too. The cupcake Raleigh scene has everything it takes to maximize on the trend of serving these individual treats. Just access the internet, which is a great resource for ideas, recipes, and accessories.

Cupcakes can fit any theme or make their own statement. Using the mini version of ever-popular cake makes preparation, clean-up, and transporting the refreshment to a venue other than your own home easy. Layer cakes need to be stabilized during transport and display, while sheet cakes can be bulky and hard to handle. They both need to be cut and served, while individual cakes can be self-serve from a focal point display.

Cupcakes are a personal touch that guests appreciate. Individual boxes, designed to hold a single cake, make a great party favor or take-out container. Boxes come with windows so a decorated treat can be seen and in many colors and patterns to fit all sorts of party themes.

Cupcakes are baked in special pans which come in many sizes, and the batter is poured into liners, or 'wrappers'. These paper or foil liners make removing the cakes fool-proof and also make clean-up a breeze. Wrappers come in fun designs like dinosaur cartoons for kid's parties, in special occasion colors and patterns for baby showers or birthday parties, and in very formal, laser-cut, lacy openwork in white, gold, black, or other colors for more formal settings.

Just looking at the accessories triggers many great ideas of ways to personalize the dessert which is often a focal point of a celebration. Polka dots liners might suggest a jaunty theme, while butterflies might make you think of that special granddaughter whose birthday or graduation is coming up. Red roses, graceful vines, pink hearts, or dinosaurs are other options for wrappers or toothpick decorations.

There are kits for making identical cakes for a theme party. They make entertaining easy but also show how decorative this art has become. It's easy to get great ideas that can jump start your own creative ideas. All the techniques that make large cakes works of art can be used for small ones, too. Use your piping tips and icing flower making flair. There are many how-to videos online that teach these skills, and what better way to practice than by making a few dozen cupcakes and working toward perfection.

Of course, there are ways to display cupcakes if you're not going to use individual boxes. Many-tiered 'maypole' (center pole supports with trays to hold the cakes) towers come in all sorts of designs in white or clear acrylic. There are even rustic ones made of recycled barn wood for displaying refreshments for a country wedding, hoe down, or square dance.

Carolina entertaining can have a new look with a cupcake Raleigh style party. This craze that swept through the United States is now taking Europe by storm. Check online for ideas, party kits, recipes, and accessories like toothpick novelties, decorative wrappers, boxes, and displays.
