Ditch the cupcakes, please

Enough with the pie bars. Cake pops had their moment. In 2022, bakers will give us the badly *kneaded* cake break we’ve all been waiting for. People will craft elaborate cakes to express whatever mood they’re in, from gravity defying tiers to bubble and 3D cakes. This trend is especially popular among Millennials, Gen X and Boomers.
