How many cupcakes does the tower hold? Also, would the top tier be stable enough to hold a 6 inch fondant covered cake?

I used this tower for a baby shower and displayed 24 "normal" sized cupcakes on it (not the giant gourmet sized ones), with a little extra room to spare. I had three on the top tier, but probably could have squeezed four onto it. It seems really sturdy once you get it assembled, as long as you're sure to push the stems into the plates fully. I don't know how heavy your top tier cake is, but as long as it's going to be sitting still, I'm sure it could handle the weight.

I put 28 medium sized heavily frosted cupcakes on it but a slight nudge by someone taking a cupcake tumbled the whole thing. I made a 6" topper, found it too heavy, substituted 3 cupcakes. Mine was, however, heavily frosted as well as fondant covered. I really do suggest you spend a few dollars more and get one that will hold up.

this cupcake tower is not sturdy enough to hold 2 cupcakes let alone 6 or a 6" cake.. I couldn't even get it to stay together long enough to sit it on the table...it would have to be permanetly glued together to possibly work

The top is made to hold a small cake & I have only used mine once with mini cup cakes, it held two dozen of those. I work with small children so the mini cup cakes work best. Now mine holds polished rocks and crystals as a display rack and looks great as a display for my crystal collection. Hope that helps.

I used it to hold an 8" double layer cake on the top and cupcakes on all the bottom layers but I didn't use the top part of the tower. It worked but the actual plates were warpped and we had to put them upside down on a flat surface with heavy weights on them for a few days to fix it.

I bought this foru wedding 'cupcake cake'. My cake lady tries it put to see how many it would hold. I believe we were able to get 50 regular sized cupcakes on the stand. Hope this helps.

I had purchased 48 cupcakes. ..now you have to understand. ..my family was into them before the party started. I had 36 on there and still room for more. You will enjoy how efficient this tier is. You can break it down and use as serving trays or use it as a 2 tier or 3. You will find many uses for it. Enjoy

Have not tried it but you should be able to. Not sure how big the cupcake is. I think you would still need to put the other tiers together. I think it can either be two or three tiers.

The layers are not quite 4-1/2" apart. Top to bottom of the unit is 18"; From the center out on the bottom layer is 3-3/4"; the next layer from center out is 3-1/2 "; third layer from center out is 3"; the top layer from center out is 2-3/4 ". The very top is 1-1/2" in diameter. It will hold at least 29 of the regular sized cupcakes. The very top will hold one, too, or you can put a flower or something on top. I have the four-tier and two of the three-tier stacks and they make a beautiful presentation of cupcakes. Used them at a wedding in 2012 and received great reviews ...course the cupcakes received great reviews as well! You may use this to serve fruits or veggies as well. Enjoy! I'm very glad I purchased it and totally recommend it.

This tier cupcake stand was an excellent purchase for me. I used the full size cupcakes which held about twelve however there was still room to place about two more on the tier. I'm guessing the tier stand should be able to hold about twenty five or so mini cupcakes (depending on the size). Hope this helped.

It depends on the thickness you plan to roll the fondant out, size of the cupcakes, and the Decoration you are looking to achieve. I do believe that this will be enough.

I usually make regular sized cupcakes for the holidays and I was able to squeeze about 100-110 on there if you go all around the tiers. if you do the sides and front ( like if the stand is on a table against the wall) maybe 80-90. you don't have to use all the tiers.

I love this giant cupcake pan! This cupcake would be a little smaller than a two layer 6 inch round cake. Number of servings would depend on the size of pieces that are cut. Maybe eight small pieces.

I found that it held about 300 Large, and 150 medium sized cupcakes. Easy to assemble and very impressive looking!

I used it and fit roughly 220 standard size cupcakes. Very easy to assemble. Ifyou plan on using it over again just be sure to cover the cardboard with foil and or decorative cloth.

It will DEFINITELY hold a 3 layer cake. I graduated with a degree in baking and pastry- I bought this specifically because it is the tallest one Amazon offered at the time and it will hold 3, 8" layers easily. Unless you are baking five inch thick layers you will have no problem. Seriously,I have used this for three layers before and it still had room left. It is spectacular!

Yes, you can place cupcakes beneath the bottom tier. It's the same space as between the other tiers.

The top is 8" square. I put a small flower arrangement in this tier but you could also do a small cake or 6 or 7 cupcakes.

I had a small two tiered cake on mine. I don't think it is large enough for three tiers, and mine was not completely level so I wouldn't risk it!

It held over 50 jumbo sized cupcakes :). There was plenty of clearance between platforms, even with embellished toppers like drink umbrellas on top of the cakes.
