Think of the most masculine of masculine man you know. My immediate reaction would be Dan from Roseanne, however, there was an episode on ABC around lunchtime today where he shaved both of his armpits. My ideal of masculinity has been dashed! I digress. Imagine buying that portrait of manliness a thank-you gift for fixing your fridge and attempt to think of something other than a power tool or a case of beer. You can’t, can you? Enter Butch Bakery.
Offering cupcakes with a beefy edge, they come in sampler boxes of 4, 6 or 12 cupcakes, in six different styles: woodland camouflage; wood grain; houndstooth; plaid; checkerboard; or marble. They only deliver within Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn, but Butch Bakery plans to deliver across the United States later in the year.
Priced at USD 4 per cupcake, they claim, “These aren’t your grandma’s cupcakes”. If they were my grandmother’s cupcakes, they’d be deep-fried in lard and served up with a dose of gold old-fashioned Russian sarcasm.
