I know, I just posted about Kiss My Bundt, and while free slices are great and all, there’s a more pressing issue at hand. While owner Chrysta Wilson has landed a book deal for her first cookbook, and the sweet shop has received some great press, the bakery is letting the public know that it needs its help. From the shop’s blog:
“The price of commodities (milk, butter, flour, sugar, Belgian Chocolate, etc) has been on the rise, sometimes doubling monthly. Retail and Wholesale sales have recently been on the decline as our customers (individuals and businesses alike) have decreased their purchases as a result of the economic downturn. Times are tough. We need your help to keep our doors open and continuing serving our Bundts and our serving community!”
So, the goal is to sell the equivalent of 5,000 mini bundt cupcakes by November 30 to stay open, which works out to three mini bundts to each of Kiss My Bundt’s 2,000-plus Twitter followers, Facebook friends and Newsletter recipients.
This sounds like total justification for me to eat three mini bundts…mmm, red velvet…

A bundt store was a bad idea from the start. I suggest she close and open…Bundt Truck.
