On Instagram, dozens of commenters identifying themselves as current or former Sprinkles employees reacted to the news, describing what they say was a sudden, company-wide closure.
“One day notice of losing my job — how will I take care of my 5 kids now,” one commenter wrote.
I can assure you they aren’t worth it, both because they are Mormon but also because they don’t keep a tight enough leesh on their franchisees who keep doing child labor. Also you can probably find a local coffee shop or something that does artisan baked goods in general.
You could probably make equally good cupcakes at home just by using a little extra real butter and sugar instead of corn syrup and vegetable oil.
Although personally I do like that oil based icing. Buttercream icing is just too buttery for me. Cream cheese icing if I’m feeling fancy.
