Cupcake Cars Get More Sugar To The Gallon

NMO4428_mpI can’t even bring myself to ask, “What will they think of next?,” because I don’t even con­sider this “car” a “thought.”

I’m pretty sure my cupcake-crazy, pink-frosting addicted, 2 year-old Dinky-Diva niece would think this “cup­cake car” is ridiculous.

I can hear it now, “Aunt Jenny, why that car a cup­cake?” 50 times in a row.

What would I answer?

Bunny, we live in a free soci­ety where peo­ple can cre­atively express them­selves any way the wish. Yes, it IS ridicu­lous. Yes, any­one who buys this has too much money and are in a reces­sion of com­mon sense, but it’s a free country!”

And one more thing, it’s one thing to drive a cup­cake car..but why the hats?

Cup­cake Car: $25,000.

Cost?: Sense­less

Put on your match­ing hat, slip under the muf­fin top of your Cup­cake Car, and let the world fig­ure itself out for awhile. Get (or give) the sheer, joy­ful chaos of a gift that is mind-blowing, triple-dog-dare, double-infinity for­ever cool. Make the kids or grand­kids lit­er­ally squeal with joy. Bring it to work and buzz the break­room. Crash parades! Put­ter about the ‘hood. Ever had a crowd of kids chas­ing after you just for the crazy glee­ful heck of it? (No wor­ries, the top speed is a comfy-safe 7 mph.) What’s it made of? A 24-volt elec­tric motor, a heavy-duty bat­tery, sheet metal, wire, fab­ric, wood…and mad genius. Launched at Burn­ing ManSM as a coöper­a­tive art car project, the Cup­cake Car sprang from the fevered mind of Bay Area artist Lisa Pon­grace and her less-rules-more-laughs posse of artists and techno geeks. Yours will be tricked out with your favorite top­ping, so start think­ing flavors.

    LOL! I guess a few peo­ple will buy enough Cup­cake Cars for Lisa Pon­grace and her less-rules-more-laughs posse to make a lit­tle bit of money. Plus they’ll be fea­tured in fan­tas­tic blogs(like this one!) around the world and have one more claim to fame. The value to me is a really good laugh!
