Is it sturdy enough to support regular size frosted cupcakes placed around the sides of the ball with toothpicks?

The ball can support the cupcakes. But think about using another type of stick other than toothpicks. You can use candy apple sticks or Wooden kabob sticks and cut those to length they are more sturdy then tooth picks.

I think that if you use the side pieces along with the racks it should be sturdy enough. The side pieces help to keep it steady. I only had room for two without the side parts, where I was putting it, but I did see this with multiple sets before I bought mine.

Yes but know that the spot to hold the cupcake in the box is set to hold a regular size cupcake. Maybe you could fit more than one.

No I don't think this will hold larger cupcakes, just regular size. It has a very snug fit on the base of regular cupcakes (although I wish the circles came up higher to keep them a bit steadier!).

Yes but I use additional support for the center of the cake stand. I just use blocks of wood.

Correct. This is a very heavy and sturdy set. No worries about tipping it over. The top handle inserts down into the center and you can see the top rim sets flat against the opposing glass (cake stand).

They are large enough to hold the large size muffins. The base for a standard cupcake had a lot of space around it but the lid allows ample space for large flowers and other decorations. For just a standard iced cupcake, they are a little to large. I used some of these for fruit salad recently. My only complaint, is that some of the lids would not snap shut so well, on those few I used a little piece of clear tape. Hope this helps!

It will only fit with standard home size cupcakes...even those were a tight fit. It was hard to get them placed without the frosting touching the tier above.

It does well with cupcakes, but I ended gluing it all together to hold the weight of cookies. I can't see it working for a wedding cake.

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.

yes it will. The lid pops up and there is ample room for a 3 layer cake. the cupcake trays are removable.

If they were really big cupcakes i think so. It measures 5.5 inches across but the sticks that attach it are at the widest 1.5 inches apart.

It arrived unassembled and I put it together but honestly have not tried taking it apart but I don't see why not. It isn't the sturdiest one I have ever seen. The two my friend has are better quality but I think she picked them up at TJ Maxx or Marshall's. If your cupcakes aren't huge this will work fine. Good luck

To be honest I purchased this for a family member. I inquired and she told me yes, the top tier will hold the Giant Cupcake. If you you are using the top tier as a stand alone, be sure its on a stable flat surface. If you use it attached to the bottom, be sure the prongs are snapped in properly and secure. I hope this helps.

I bought this stand for a friends wedding I did last summer. You can assemble it tier by tier. I did not use the top tier because I put a cake up top. There is plenty of room for jumbo cupcakes, with myself only using the three bottom tiers for cupcakes I still was able to fit about 60. I also wrapped ribbon around the edge of each tier to give it some more color;)

No this is best for regular sized. Although I'm sure you can get creative to fill the gap at the bottom by supporting the cupcake on tissue paper!

Yes and it's very sturdy. I just found it the perfect solution for my cake supplies.
