Maddiebird Forced To Close Early Opening Day




Better luck tomorrow. The new Maddiebird bakery on Devon had to lock its doors early. Business was very brisk. Heartening to see a store come to life years in the making.

Many people walking by did a double take. A few pulled on the door not believing that it really sold out. The proprietor told everyone to come back the next day for more.

Naturally Maddiebird bakery sells Metropolis coffee. Its where the baker first sold her cupcakes. One cupcake for 3.50 or twelve for 42. Buying in bulk won't save you money but it will help you make new friends.

1445 w Devon Avenue is right across the street from the Devon Market. These pics were taken half an hour before official closing time (5:30 pm). Not sure what regular business hours will be. It was supposed to be open 11 am til 6 pm today. Guess they will have to buy more dough and hire more bakers to keep up with demand.

Be prepared when going! Basic cupcakes at Maddiebird - icing/cake combos - chocolate/chocolate, chocolate/vanilla, vanilla/chocolate and vanilla,vanilla

The half dozen this writer bought didn't last very long today.
