So Long, Cupcake

Normally, getting the scoop on a food service establishment closing is blogroll amigo Greg Roach's specialty, but there's some buzzing around town about Molly's Bakery on Eagle Street coming to the end of the line.

They're looking for a buyer, but are planning on ceasing operations on Saturday. This is the buzz downtown reported by People Who Have Been Telling A Lot Of Other People.

I hope this is not true, as there are several cupcakes from just yesterday in the kitchen right now, and they're lovely, and I would truly doubt that the cupcakes made on an industrial baked-good assembly line (*cough* Big Y *cough*) could hold a candle to them. And a Beach Party or Fall Foliage weekend without fried dough? Why? How?

Still, we'll find out once the intrepid investigative journalists at the North Adams Transcript confirm or deny the story....although if it's not true I doubt there'd be much reason to run a story saying "Some Local Bigmouth's Blog Was Wrong About Local Bakery Running Out Of Dough".

From what I know about cupcakes, if you wrap 'em well enough, they'll freeze for a month or two before they start coming out tasting funny. Stock up, kids. More on this as it develops.

UPDATE: This one turns out to be true. Click here for the Transcript story. So, aloha oe, Molly's. You will be missed.

The Butcher, the Baker, the candlestick maker.....When these people are gone so is any resemblance to a local community. We now enter the Yuppy quick assembly line goods produced by the greedy with no concern for product quality or taste or goodness. Just keep that "dough" a rollin.....in! Although baked goods from the supermarkets ain't half bad and donuts from Dunkin do taste good. Hmmmmm, maybe the same PEOPLE are involved? Who do the voo do do you?
