Tinkerbell0228 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I just wanted to say thank you for the Thomas The Train cake it was such a good cake. It was one of the best cakes I have had in a while. Link to post Share on other sites
workingforaliving Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 You have GOT to keep peanut butter cupcakes in stock. It's critical for me to become a "regular" Also, the peanut butter cake you threw together for me the other week was a HUGE hit! In fact, quite a few people asked me today where I got it! I think they'll be hitting you up for upcoming birthdays!! Link to post Share on other sites

justgettingby Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 The description of the orange cupcake sounds delicious, it really, really does. But I'm curious why you opted to name it after a cancer causing defoliant? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
lowrider Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I was wondering the same thing, but I didn't bring it up. My cousin was contaminated with Agent Orange in VietNam. The name has bothered me all day. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

My cousin was contaminated with Agent Orange in VietNam. The name has bothered me all day. So sorry if it bothered you. We name all of our cupcakes after songs or bands. A group called Agent Orange has a version of the Get Smart theme and Depeche Mode did a beautiful instrumental called Agent Orange http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHxiaxV8QOM&feature=related. I was thinking more "secret agent" since it is a rich chocolate cupcake infused with orange. We also entertained the names Clockwork Orange and Orange Blossom Special, but neither seemed to fit, let me know when you get 'em ready! I like the coke cake too. Will do!

mei lan Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Clockwork Orange (gah!) would be on about the same level as Agent Orange. I do like Orange Blossom Special, though. No negative connotations. Not dissin' you...if I lived anywhere near, I'd stop in and try your stuff. Just commenting because somebody else brought it up... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
justgettingby Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) JJ Grey and Mofro do a great song called , "Orange Blossoms" as well. I swear, I'm not trying to be dramatic at all. But I'm sorry, there's no way I would ever entertain the thought of eating something named that. I do find it inappropriate to name a cupcake after it considering the hundreds of thousands of veterans and others who were injured, maimed, or killed by Agent Orange. I doubt that most people think of Depeche Mode instead of the herbicide. How about Zyklon B cheesecake? Or DDT donuts? (There are songs and groups for both) Yummmm.

lowrider Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Thanks for the explanation Just goes to show we're from different generations. I had no idea there was a group called Agent Orange. Don't know why they picked that name, but Agent Orange will always bring up images of the war I saw on TV night after night and waiting for my cousin and my friends to come home from the war. . 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't have anything nice to say why bother saying anything at all? You asked for an explanation and got one. I think Agent Orange sounds delicious! Can't wait to try one!

I'm starting to do my research for my daughter's 18th birthday in August (yes, I'm a planner LOL) We don't have a website yet, but do have a facebook page with lots of pictures on it. https://www.facebook.com/FlourChildCakery Thanks for all the comments. And we really are not trying to offend anyone, Agent Orange cupcakes are selling like crazy, though. I guess good taste is winning out over a bad name. lol Link to post Share on other sites
