Title: Cupcakes
Post by: Cartierfor3 on February 12, 2014, 09:22:49 PM
I have absolutely had it. Enough. Make a full sized freaking cake. Oh you made cute cupcakes for the cute little birthday party I'm obligated to attend for your stupid 4 year old? AWESOME! TWO WHOLE BITES! WOW THAT WAS SO SATISFYING! I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO MOMMY BLOG AND INSTAGRAM AND PINTRIST THIS STUPID CUPCAKE.


I want a damn full sized piece of cake. This is getting ridiculous.

I think I've shown I'll put up with a lot in my life. I work hard, I pay my taxes, and I raise my kids. And I want a piece cake. Why is this so difficult?

The worst part? They only make EXACTLY one per guest. I wouldn't even give a crap about looking like a fat pig, I'd ask for more cupcakes, but they only have one per person.


Its like, on what planet should a 4 year old who weighs 34 pounds and a 31 year old who weighs 217 pounds get exactly the same amount of cake?

I've been to probably 600 parties with full sized cake and have never seen one where there wasn't some left over. That's a good movie but they don't know crap about cake.

Well how many people in your 600 parties have lost money because they bought to much cake? By my calculations 600 on the dot(need mocat to confirm). Which is why per guest quantity is more cost effective  :)

Probably 0 of them lost money, and 100% of them were happy that they had cake left over the next day for breakfast. And think of the money they save on those stupid papers which end up in a landfill.

Its just that people plan their life around pinterest and instagram and you know who suffers? Joe Sixpack who just wants some damn cake.

I've been bouncing this anti-cupcake rhetoric off of her all day, and guess what? She's on my side. No wife of mine is going to be an idiot who makes cupcakes.

Eating a cupcake with a fork would be like eating pizza with a fork. Barbaric, IMO.

Pizza has a built in handle, called the crust. Cupcakes are a mess factory. Mess to cake ratio is completely off the charts. BUT LOOK HOW CUTE ON INSTAGRAM

I'm sure they'd look/taste great but I'd be unsatisfied because they're too small and they're messy and impossible to eat

I'm not a fan.  Lady BR's sister just tasted cupcakes for her wedding this summer last weekend.  The good part is that you get 8 different flavors.  The bad part is you have to deal with a crappy overplayed little cake.

Sidenote- best wedding dessert I have ever experienced is a smallish wedding cake but then a whole table of homemade apple and cherry pies with icecream as the grooms "cake".  Let's just say there was a mountain of cake leftover but no pie to be found.

Yes, the new thing is making "cupcakes" the size of full-sized cakes.  Have your cake, and eat it too.
