I'm so sick of seeing boring, unimaginative headlines like this one: "Pie to Cupcake: Time's Up," which was featured in The New York Times. There's a din of "___ is the new cupcake" and you know what? It's stupid. There is not actually a competition, and, yes, cupcakes can coexist with pie, macarons, whoopie pies, donuts, cookies, brownies and other desserts.
Pie had been lurking below the radar in recent years: taking cover during the ice cream trend, perhaps waiting to see which way the macaron tide would turn. (For proof that the cupcake craze has gone too far, consider the new turkey cranberry cupcake with gravy in the batter from Yummy Cupcakes in Los Angeles.)
