Crumbs Bakeshop, which as you know has major expansion plans, is set to open in Stamford, Connecticut in October:

As for the street-level space, the Town Council Wednesday night approved offering Crumbs a 10-year lease with a five-year option to extend, at a first-year rate of $100 per square foot. Bow Tie currently holds a 15-year lease (14 years remaining) with a five-year option.

The tenant would be responsible for operating expenses and regular maintenance, but not for real estate taxes as long as the building is owned by the Town.

Crumbs Bake Shop, which specializes in “gourmet” cupcakes, is a family-owned bakery located primarily in Manhattan, according to crumbs.com and a job listing at craigslist.com.


And they're hiring:

Crumbs is a family-owned bakeshop that opened their first store on the Upper West Side of New York City in 2003. We are known for our gourmet cupcakes, but we also bake other sweet goodies like brownies, cookies, cakes, etc. We are a rapidly expanding company and are seeking talented people that will grow with us.

i live in stamford and can't wait for crumbs. people are going to go nuts around here...it's in a great, heavily trafficked location.
Crumbs is pretaaay good. I was there at the opening on Larchmont in LA. I got a free cupcake, Boston Creme. I do prefer Sprinkles in Beverly Hills tho, maybe I'm old fashioned.
