This was used at a bday party and did exactly what I needed for it... it held 16 standard sized cupcakes. I could have fit more, but frosting would have smooshed... there were 8 on the bottom and 4 on both top and middle board. This whole stand is made of cardboard with skits to assemble and hold it together. It's pretty sturdy too for being cardboard. And the bright colors looked nice behind our treats :) it was a good price and delivered promptly.I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for a quick and easy treat standSorry I only took a pic of everything together, but it's in there and you get the idea :)
