Bakery Responds After IN Teen Buys Every Cupcake To Spite Bully
A Valparaiso woman posted a recent bakery experience on Facebook, saying she spent over $50 on cupcakes because of a body-shaming customer.

VALPARAISO, IN -- Just days after a Valparaiso teen shared a humor-filled Facebook post (below) about an unpleasant bullying experience she had at a local bakery on her Facebook page, an employee of Designer Desserts-Valparaiso responded in support of Vega Blossom.
"Designer Desserts-Valparaiso is a BULLY FREE ZONE and WILL NOT TOLERATE these disgusting types of attitudes. Didn't your parents ever teach you, 'If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all' Keep your mouth shut and snide remarks to yourself. Geeze people, its a cupcake shop, if it wasn't for all of us thick 'n juicy Americans who love to indulge in sweets, I wouldn't have a business."
They also reached out to Blossom, saying, "My sincere apologies go out to this beautiful young woman, and I cannot thank her enough for being such a loyal and amazing customer, we will be seeing you very soon :)."

A Valparaiso teen is sending a message after an unpleasant experience at a local bakery on March 31 led her to spending $54 on cupcakes. No, the staff didn't overcharge her. She spent that amount in response to what a lady in line behind her said.
Vega Blossom posted about the bakery incident on Facebook, beginning her post with, "Tonight, i was really petty." Blossom wrote she saw on Facebook that a local bakery was having a sale on everything before they closed for the night, so she went to the shop.
That's when Blossom, 19, said there was lady behind her in line who was being impatient and rude about the woman in front of Blossom who was slowly ordering a cake.
"I ignored it until the lady in front of me left and as i walked up to the counter the lady turns to her friend and says 'thank god, now lets hope this fat b---- doesn't buy all the cupcakes,'" Blossom posted.
Blossom said she originally planned on buying six, but as soon as she heard that come out of the woman's mouth, she bought "every d--- cupcake," adding she spent over $50 "just to be a b----."
