Cupcakes jobs at Sweet in Boston, plus New York company wants "Cupcake Rockstars"

From Boston Business Journal, some good news about the economy and cupcakes:

Courtney Forrester’s decision to open her third Sweet cupcake shop on Newbury Street earlier this month means that shoppers can now indulge in freshly baked dark chocolate, red velvet and Boston cream pie cupcakes.

The news is also sweet for the job market. Forrester hired seven new employees — from managers to cake decorators ­­— for the store.

“Opening a new location gives us a great opportunity to employ some local folks,” said Forrester, who also has stores in Harvard Square and on Massachusetts Avenue.


I didn't see any Boston job listings on Craigslist, but found this one in New York that amused me. Imagine "Cupcake Rockstar" on your business card!
