He Said She Said - Cupcakes

 

"It's a CUPCAKE!" she snapped.

"What is?" he asked.

"A cupcake."

"Um..."

"There's a little paper cup.  In it is a little cake.  It's a cupcake!

"Uh..."

"It doesn't need cream under the icing!  It doesn't need ganache in the middle!  It just needs to be a CUP.  CAKE."

"OK..."

"I don't want the extra calories.  I don't need the extra calories!  I just want to bite into slightly crunchy, sweet icing and then down into a soft, moist cake!  And have it be small, so I can only eat so much of it!"

"Honey?" he said.  "Have you seen the can opener?"

"I AM ON A CUPCAKE RANT HERE!" she yelled.  "CONCENTRATE!"

Silence.

"What is WRONG with these people?  I mean, the clue is IN. THE. NAME!  CUP!  CAKE!"

Silence.

"You're ignoring me now, aren't you?"

"Yup."

"Fine!"

Where have cupcakes come from and what happened to doughnuts?!

When we came to Seattle a year ago, the cupcake phenomen had not reached the UK. You now can't move for cup cakes which have been quadrupled in height with day glo icing and glitter. Why?

[Ittybittycrazy]

I have no idea. I suspect it is because people can sell sub-standard cake if they cover it in icing which is double as high as the cake. We bought some two days ago which were utterly vile. The icing was like plastic.

Lucky for us we have a VERY good donut chain here. Did we take you there when you came over? If not, you should order a hit on us.
