CUPCAKE RAGE: Comfort food addict trashes cupcake store

 POLICE HUNT FOR CUPCAKE RAGE WOMAN AFTER SHOP WRECKED!!  

Not from the Onion:

AN ANGRY woman wrecked a cake shop – because they had run out of her favourite flavour of cupcake.

Say again?

Police were yesterday hunting the blonde woman accused of trashing the shop in the centre of Cardiff after being told: “Sorry we’ve sold them all.”  The woman lashed out in fury at Sugarswirlz in Dominions Arcade, when she was told the £2.20 “sweet-tooth fairy cakes” had all gone.  She dived behind the counter to grab shocked owner Sally Dodd by the hair.  Staff and customers had to duck for cover as she smashed plate glass display units, crashed down shelves and attacked a stand full of creamy cupcakes.  The irate woman then started to throw cupcakes round the shop – aiming them at shoppers and staff in the fit of cake-rage.  Police are appealing for help to trace the woman, who fled with her two young sons at Sugarswirlz cake shop in the middle of the Welsh capital.

What flavor of cupcake could seduce someone to lose their mind?  Red-velvet?

“It is called the sweet tooth fairy cake and is very popular."

The sweet tooth fairy?  She sounds like the evil half-sister of the tooth fairy.

"I’ve never seen anything like it. You expect a certain amount of risk running a bar or a pub but not in a cupcake shop.”

Indeed.

The full story is here.  Longtime readers of this blog know that something like this was tragically inevitable.  The gourmet cupcake mask slips, and the serpent's hideous face peaks out.

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die

Well the fact that Butchers tend to have things like knives, saws and grinders behind the counter might have something... naw, not for a food addict.  Addiction is like that, it interferes with your ability to function properly because without the stimulant, you are for whatever reason incapable of rational activity.
