The Great Cupcake Debacle: A Frosting-Filled Nightmare
Our bride-to-be wanted her wedding to be unique, so she ordered 120 ombré-frosted cupcakes for the big day. But when she picked up her order, the cupcakes were completely different from what she asked for! After multiple attempts to fix the order, the bake shop still couldn’t get it right. The final straw? They scraped off the old frosting and redid it, leaving obvious imperfections and staining. The bride refused to accept the cupcakes, but was still forced to pay full price for the botched order. Thankfully, she found another bake shop that nailed her vision on the first try. But was our bride being too picky, or did she have every right to demand perfection for her special day? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this frosting fiasco…
