Pop! Goes the Business!
Kaylee Bakes has an amazing offer, just for you! For the low, low price of $10, you can have one inexpertly frosted Halloween cake pop. Estimated delivery: November 2013! BUT WAIT! Order now, and you can have CHRISTMAS CAKE POPS TOO!! (Just don't ask for more than one, or you'll be getting them next year.)

Kickfailure is understandably amused.

But hark! What light through yonder Kaylee Bakes? It is the feast! And Kaylee Bakes is the sun!

"This better be removed. I have your address ANDY."

"You all can stop hating because I am a certified chef. Also, I’m not selling I’m advertising. And I’ve been running my business for over a year making hundreds of dollars so you can stop talking about someone you don’t know."

Also, it's pointed out that she needs a license to sell food products outside of her state and a Health Department-certified kitchen to bake them in. BUT KAYLEE BAKES HAS A PLAN!

"I’m not SELLING, I’m SENDING complimentary cake pops to those who funded me. SO THERE."

Sounds legit.

Cake pops are surely nature's most disappointing food.

I know I was let down the first time I had a cake pop. Oh lollipop cake, why did you forsake me? ._.

I wanted to like them. I still do. Maybe if they weren't overloaded with frosting/icing/fondant/whateverthehellwecallitthisyear, they'd be okay.

OK, for the record: you're not supposed to win the thread before the thread has even started.

"I finished the Wilton Cake Decorating Series" doesn't have the same ring, I guess.

I wonder if that selling/sending thing would stand up? Little distinctions like that often are loopholes (like you can't giftaid in exchange for a good or service, but you can make a donation to a museum equal to a ticket price, for which out of gratitude the museum gives you free entrance)

Wait, so the project is--donate a lot of money to her business? And she will give you a few cake pops as thanks? (Unless you don't donate enough, then you only get thanks?)

I'm confused. I thought donations were for charity.

This is my puzzlement with Kickstarter generally. This is not how I understand "investment" to work.

But, you know, maybe I can set one up so people will give me money to write my NaNo novel?

Oh, wait, I am not Cassie Clare.

What's with her not *getting* "your" vs. "you're"? It was almost like she was doing it on purpose but, she wasn't. Also, her fiance/babydaddy is so very classy. Where can I get one like him?

The funniest thing was the link to another blog post for the "Strap & Crap", which has been renamed to “Loop N’ Poop”. It helps "lessen the chance of messin' your pants". Now I'm not really an outdoorsy person but is there a big need for this and would YOU actually use it?

Boy needs a prozac, Jesus Christ. o.O Calm the fuck down and stop trying to shove every word you think is an insult into a single sentence. It doesn't make you more insulting, it just makes you look like a twelve year old who just discovered he won't be immediately struck down by lightning for saying the F-word.

If you think those cake pops look unappetizing now, what do you supposed they'd be like after all that shipping and handling?

I'm amazed that anyone is actually buying them at those prices. I mean, I just bought a couple of cake pops (halloween-themed ones, even! They were decorated to look like cartoony mummy heads.) from an actual legitimate store and they were $1.75 each.

Which is arguably still kind of expensive for what they are, but at least it doesn't feel like a blatant rip-off.

Her most recent update has domestic violence awareness pops that say, "Your not alone." I wonder how many of those bad boys she'll sell.
