i dont need $5 cupcakes to be happy, the 12 for $4 at publix does just fine


Agreed, except one time I was really impressed by the cupcakes at Gigis in Memphis. They were freaking delicious. Every other time I have had "gourmet" cupcakes they were meh at best and almost impossible to actually eat because they had so much frosting on them.

It's going alright in NWA right now. Bliss cupcakes opened their second store and that land it's built on isn't cheap.

I liked Gigi's even though I felt like shite after eating one. But one time I went and asked them how long they would keep (it was summer). The guy told me their recipe for the frosting is 75% butter and 25% sugar and flavoring. After that, I vowed to never eat one again. Too much junk.

As for FroYo collapsing, I don't think it's any time soon. They're marketed so well as being a "healthy" snack that people don't hesitate to get some.
