Lay a ruler against the side of a Medium Foam Cone, and make several concentric Sharpie marks 2 1/2 inches up from the bottom of the cone.

Using a compass saw or other small serrated blade, cut along the Sharpie marks on the Foam Cone. Note that you'll get a more even cut if you slowly turn the cone as you cut, lining the blade up with the marks each time. Discard the top pointed part of the cone when you finish the cut.

Load your Mini Glue Gun with a fresh Glue Stick, and then attach rows of Natural Cording to completely cover the sides of the cut cone base. Trim the end of the cording with scissors once you finish wrapping the cone entirely.

Reload the Glue Gun with another fresh Glue Stick if needed, and then squeeze an even amount of glue on top of the cut cone base. Before the glue dries, center a Dessert Plate on top of the glue, and press firmly into place. Hold for about 20 seconds before letting off the pressure to ensure a tight seal.

Now, bake or buy cupcakes, wrap them with Gold Laser-Cut Cupcake Wrappers, and place them on top of your finished DIY Foam Cone Base Cupcake Plate. For extra flair, serve with Gold and White Beverage Napkins and Metallic Gold Plastic Forks!
