We are having miini cupcakes (a variety of flavors) instead of a cake for our reception. how many would you buy for 35 people? 

We will be having a few appetizers for the main meal and of course liquor (not that it matters, LOL)

    Um, liquor ALWAYS matters!  LOL  What did bakery suggest?  I'm always worried about not having enough food when I feed people (it's the Hungarian in me), so I would order at least 50.  Oh, just read it again and saw the "mini", are those just bite size ones?  Maybe double you number then since they are small and I'm guessing people will take two?

    I would say about 2-3 per person, so maybe about 100.

    100 sounds about right. Although our cake fed 60 people, we had 58 guests and half the bottom tier left!

    I was thinking the same. I'm hosting a party at the Venetian for about 17-20 guests. I wonder if the mini cupcakes are bite-size. I'm ordering from Retro Bakery. I know Rach has used them, I'm hoping she'll shime in.

    I like how you can get 2 different flavors per dozen of the mini's.

    I'd say since they are mini, at least 2 per person.  Maybe 75-100?
