I don't really get the whole cupcake renaissance. I used to work for a woman who owned a shop in Berverly Hills that was next to the Spinkles shop. People would be lined up down the block for cupcakes.
Sprinkles is snooty. Here's what they say about themselves: "The world's first cupcake bakery, the progenitor of the haute cupcake craze, most cupcake bakeries take their inspiration from Sprinkles."
The school I work at brought Spinkles cupcakes today. I still don't really what the big deal is. I had to buy two of them though. Just for research purposes, of course.
Crumbs is better...Though neither is fit to call themselves a cupcake bakery compared to the Magnolia Bakery in New York. I love that place (though the last two times have demonstrated downward trending ... **sigh**)
