How many do you need, and what does that come to?
One each, rounded up to a multiple of 6 because each flavour is its own batch. The table below does the arithmetic with the boxes that are actually sold, so the totals are what you would pay rather than a per-cake figure multiplied out.
| Who | Eating | Cupcakes | Total |

Adults take one; children take one and ask for another; teachers always count themselves out and then have one.
Cupcakes or a cake for a birthday?
Cupcakes win on logistics and lose on ceremony. Nothing is cut, nothing is plated and nobody waits, which at a children’s party is worth more than it sounds — the ten minutes of cutting a cake is the ten minutes a room of six-year-olds decides to do something else. What a box cannot do is be carried in with candles on it while everybody sings. For 12 children, 12 cupcakes are £72 against £100 for a 6-inch cake cutting 8–12 — so the common answer is a small cake for the song and cupcakes for the room.
Which to order
Children’s party or a classroom — cupcakes, every time.
A birthday tea at home — a cake, and it will be eaten over two days.
An office — cupcakes: no knife, no plates, no washing up.
A photograph with candles — a 6-inch at £100 alongside.
What should go on top?
Two colours and one idea, repeated. A box of 12 identical cupcakes in the right colours looks deliberate; a box of 12 different designs looks like a sample tray. The exceptions are worth knowing: a printed photograph on every one at £1 a cake, or a single cupcake made different from the rest for the birthday child to be given first. Modelled figures can go on cupcakes as easily as on a cake, and are quoted the same way — with the design rather than off a list.
Themes are set out on character cakes, and the ideas behind the colours on birthday cake ideas.

Allergies? Our kitchen handles all 14 of the allergens UK law requires us to declare, so nothing we bake is free from any of them. What is in each cake, and our hygiene rating.
