Crumbs Bake Shop Plans Monday Opening

Per a post on Chowhound, the NYC-based cupcake chain Crumbs Bake Shop is planning to open its first Boston outpost in the Financial District this coming Monday, March 19. The shop's website says the opening had been delayed and does not confirm the official date, but it does offer this coupon. The update comes on the heels of yesterday's news that the DC-based Georgetown Cupcake would be opening in May. So there you have it: two imports coming to town claim a piece of the local cupcake turf in time for spring, which, if cupcakes were a season, would clearly be it.
