NYC CUPCAKE WAR!
Will children be caught in the cupcake crossfire?
Well, actually, a blog called Cupcakes Take the Cake got the scoop, but we'll give you a scoop of it here, before directing you to them for the whole sweet smell of scand-ola!
From today's post:
This morning, a reader pointed us toward an alleged cupcake controversy, right here in New York City: that Jennifer Appel, owner of Buttercup Bakeshop (and former owner of Magnolia Bakery) was supposedly suing a former employee, Mark Libertini, for opening a new cupcake-focused bakeshop in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, called Little Cupcake Bakeshop.
Get the full, shocking story right here.
UPDATE!
Our own Agent M. just weighed in with news from the field
...the field being an indoor meeting at a television network:
Ooh, we had Buttercup cupcakes yesterday for a [redacted] meeting. Delicious, but the chocolate cake part was a bit dry.
How can something so sweet lead to such a bitter war?
Good work Agent M.
All of America is still counting on you.
