The frosting is taller than the cake.
A red velvet cupcake from the new cupcake shop, topped with a cream cheese frosting swirl taller than the cake itself.
The story · 2008
When the Sprinkle Theory cupcake shop opened downtown, the line wrapped past the shoe store. The Frosting Skyscraper was the star, a deep red cupcake under a towering cream cheese spiral and a sprinkle of crumbs. Nobody knew how to eat it without getting frosting on their nose, so everyone just accepted the frosting mustache.
Regulars swore the trick was to tear off the bottom half and stack it on top like a sandwich.
