The cupcake bubble is all too real. Ask anyone who lived in Manhattan during the 2000s as it finalized its transformation from "Escape from New York" to the NYU/Sex in The City cupcake fantasyland of today. The guys who used to have the cheap bagel and coffee trucks now sell cupcakes instead.

As a foreigner, I'm still feeling uninformed about what you are talking about.

What's about the cupcakes? Do US citizens buy cupcakes in high volumes and high prices?

What's next? Muffin tops sold by a store called "Top of the Morning?"
Macarons.
