Keanu Reeves shot Generation Um, held cupcake, ate cream cheese frosting at Sugar Sweet Sunshine

Updated (sorry for the error, I maybe shouldn't blog pre-caffeine)

The latest news, via the Facebook page of New York City bakery Sugar Sweet Sunshine, is that Keanu Reeves shot his new movie there yesterday.

They had cupcakes that were Gluten Free or Sugar Free for him to eat during the shot. Anyway, they didn't like the icing color on the cupcake & asked me to scrape it off and put ours on. So, not our cake but yes, our delish creamcheese icing -shot him eating it in front & on our bench.

The movie is Generation Um and you can see photos of him with a cupcake at the Daily Mail. (If we find one we can post, we will!) From the article:

The actor was seen surrounded by people as he began filming on the set of indie film Generation Um.

Earlier he was in typical solitary pose as he sucked hard on his cigarette, but it didn't stay that way for long, as two women stopped to chat with the actor.

And later he could be seen chomping on a cup cake - but rather than a celebratory one, like the one he had on his birthday, this time he was eating for the cameras.

Keanu will star alongside actresses Bojana Novakovic and Adelaide Clemens in the film which follows a day in the life of Reeves' character and his two cohorts.


We heart Sugar Sweet Sunshine bigtime, and they do custom cupcakes and cakes (little known fact but totally true). Visit their website for contact info and Facebook page, linked above, for examples.
