The Rocky Mountain News has an article about Daddy Cakes and a new bakery to us, one that opened in October, Yum Yums Delights.
"People come into our store and, seriously, stand in front of our display cabinet jumping up and down," Maiurro said. "We smile and know we did the right thing."
Both Yum Yums and Happy Cakes think there's enough room in Denver's waistline to accommodate more than one cupcake shop, and a bake sale held earlier this month appears to buttress that view.
Marketing firm Amelie Co. set out 1,500 cupcakes on Dec. 13 for its first-ever "Trendy Cupcake Sale for Charity." Within less than two hours, all the cupcakes were sold out - ending the sale three hours earlier than planned, said Annie Coghill, Amelie's media director. The event raised $2,700 for Operation Frontline.
Happy Cakes' Reynolds chalks up cupcakes' popularity to childhood nostalgia and their simple democratic appeal.
"Everyone gets their own," she said. "And you don't have to share."
Look for interviews here with both bakeries soon!
