Cupcake Count

If they're mini cupcakes, I'd have at least two or maybe three per person, especially if you're having a variety of flavors. People want to try everything! If they're regular sized, I think your number sounds good, mostly because you have a cookie bar as well to fill people up. In my opinion, more is better. Plus then you get to eat all the leftovers!

I think that's a good amount for 130 people! The cookie bar sounds delicious, too

When I researched this I found that it is suggested to have 1 1/2 per person. If you are also doing a cookie bar then I think 150 is good. We have 115 people and are making 144 cupcakes and we're having a candy buffet.

We're having 3 flavors and 180 mini cupcakes and 24 regular size cupcakes plus 1 jumbo cupcake in fhs favorite flavor lemon lavender
N we only invited 30 ppl but we're all big on sweets.

The websites says with cupcakes that it is different than regular cake so you should double it in case someone wants a second piece. You should know how much your guest would eat, but you may be okay with 150-180?

Hi! I would actually ask your cupcake baker - we don't have any other dessert and ours actually said we can probably go 80-85% to the total headcount. With cookies, you could probably go even less at 40% of your total headcount.

We discussed this idea too and we're shocked to learn how expensive it can be to have cupcakes. Because of their size, some guests may want more than one. Or they may want to take one (or 2) with them. So we sort of scratched the idea and are doing some mini local desserts called tarts instead and a small cake for FH and I to take pics with and cut. Hopefully the tarts will be enough and that we may actually be able to try one as well.
