P.S. Why haven't cupcakes gone away? Why are women still serving them to each other at parties that aren't also staffed by freelance clowns and pony-handlers?
And, more importantly, don't people realize how irreparably the cupcake-fad-that-will-never-die has damaged our collective perception the appropriate ratio of cake-to-frosting in a cake dessert? With cupcakes crowding our lives and bullying our palates into its sick proportions--like one part-cake to five parts-frosting--grown women are eating far too much frosting!
We'd all do better with the dignity of a slice of cake. I know saying dignity in the same sentence as cake is funny. But that's only because I'm thinking about the Cake Boss.
Yayyy!!! It's the Cake Boss!
You guys, Cake Boss is the best show. I know those monstrously ugly, pigeon-toed, hipster acne victims from Ace of Cakes probably watch his show just to sneer at how amateur his cakes are, but I'm on team Cake Boss all the way. The people on staff at Bruni's Bakery are morbidly obese and colorfully ethnic, instead of Aspberger's-edly pale-faced and a retro lunchbox short of a full-on 90's cliche.
And at least the Cake Boss made a Zombie Cake that was genuinely horrifying, and his Bunny Cake even less intentionally so.
The Cake Boss has undone the damage to Italian Americans from New Jersey that Caroline Manzo has singlehandedly wrought with her Medusa familia. Viva him!
