Abstract
A stand for holding and displaying a food item, such as a cupcake or muffin, includes a generally vertical trunk and at least one branch having an arm portion and a spiral portion with the arm portion connected to the trunk so that the branch extends radially outwards from the trunk. The spiral portion features coils sized to support the desert item. A base is attached to the trunk so that the stand may be supported on a generally horizontal surface. The inner coils of the spiral portion of the branch are bent downwards at an angle so that the food item is tipped for facilitated viewing.
