I don't think this will pass legal muster. If state law says it's legal to purchase (what-ever) at a certain age then a merchant has no legal right to refuse that transaction.
Could Walmart also decide it won't sell alcohol to anyone under 25?? I don't think so.
This will end up in court.

They certainly have a right to sell what they want. They can stop selling eggs tomorrow too.

Private business. Can do what they want.

It won't stop people from buying them, but if they think it's a good PR move, then they have the right.

Only conservative owned cake making companies can't do what they want.

Why not? As far as I'm aware, FFL's are allowed sole discretion to not sell a firearm to anyone for any reason whatsoever.
