Doesnt this sort of answer your question, unless you think the fad is only among the bourgeousie?PLesa excuse the tpyos. -
I agree. A slice of cake is better than a cupcake. Usually cupcakes have a big blob of frosting on top while cake has it more evenly spread on top, on the side and in between the two layers.Originally posted by Katy Lied View PostI've long had the opinion that a piece of cake tastes better than an equivalent cupcake. I like the texture of the rough edges.
Plus, cupcakes are much harder to transport. One of my coworkers proudly brought in this:
I make an exception for black bottomed cupcakes. All that creamcheesy chocolate chipey gooey goodness sinking to the bottom.What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

Not a damn thing -- pie rocks! I'm enjoying the explosion of pie shops around Seattle, and while I was running home from work the other day I saw the Food Network crew wrapping up from shooting a place in my neighborhood.Originally posted by FN Phat View Post
Pie is readying for its star turn this afternoon, when a Food Network crew will descend upon the Fremont bake shop to capture hours of pie-making footage.
Pie is one of two Seattle bakeries slated for inclusion in the Food Network's upcoming pie special: West Seattle's Shoofly Pie Company will also be featured, along with pie bakeries in Chicago and San Francisco. Pie's owner Jess Whitsitt has heard the one-off show will be "airing quite a few times," starting this fall.
Pie is overtaking the cupcake craze here in Seattle (there's a new pie place in about every neighborhood right now), though I suspect it won't catch on to the same degree for a variety of reasons. But for now I'm digging the pie resurgence. Shoofly is better than Pie (the place in our hood), but West Seattle is such a hike.So Russell...what do you love about music?

And I agree with the cake > cupcake folks.
Even when cupcakes hit hard years back, we still never really stopped going to our favorite cake place. The Mrs. loves the chocolate white chocolate and pretty much requests that as her b-day cake every year.

Shoofly pie reminds me of horehound candy. Both taste of muddy brown sugar. Both tastes from the past. I wouldn't mind trying either again.Originally posted by MarkGrace View PostComment
