Park Slope, Brooklyn to get The King of Cupcakes cupcake shop

Brownstoner reports on the soon-to-open cupcake bakery The King of Cupcakes in Park Slope, Brooklyn:

A new sweet shop is moving into the old Firefly space on 7th Avenue. It's called the King of Cupcakes, and according to their website, they'll be serving cupcakes, cookies, custom cakes, pies, pastries, bagels, gelato, "and the best damn coffee in Brooklyn."

The blog Here's Park Slope takes a peek inside the bakery. If you have any news about when they're opening, let us know at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com

I don't know if they are related or not, but this Facebook page is for The King of Cupcakes bakery at 299 7th Avenue at 27th Street in Manhattan, and they recently did Jersey Couture custom cupcakes; see some of their photos in this album.
