Colorful, Edible Gold-Topped Cupcake Tower

“I've never been a big cake person,” Chelsea says. “However, give me a cake pop and a cupcake, and you've made me a happy lady! A family friend of ours owns a cupcake shop nearby (shout out to Cupcake Heaven in Haymarket!) so we knew we wanted to do a cupcake tower in place of the traditional wedding cake. We also have a friend who makes the most amazing cake balls and cake pops in the world (not an exaggeration!). So we had a variety of cupcakes topped with edible gold glitter, of course.”
