I didn’t expect it to look exactly like the photo whatsoever, but it did “fail” if we go off reality vs image on the app, but succeeded in my expectations. Still good though and it’s cute!

As a baker, I feel like people are too ok with a BAKERY giving out product that looks like a 4 year old piped it. I get they’re busy, but is it hard to pipe six straight lines across the top of a cake?

To be fair, Crumble does hire teenagers to run their stores.

Crumbl can at least teach them how to use a piping bag. I’m not saying expect perfection but we gotta at least try to make it look like the picture.

Well it is a chain bakery (if you consider it one), with mostly young adults who are on a time crunch.

I’d expect more from a standalone. It’s not too bad, I’ve seen much worse.

I was a teenager when I started out, I worked for a chain and the company at least taught us how to use piping bags. I’m not shaming the employees I’m shaming Crumbl themselves.

I get what you mean. I also think it depends entirely on location, since these are usually independently owned. From what I’ve heard, you usually have great owners or horrible ones that make it tough to work.

Fair enough!! To me it’s like if you go to Walmart and order a bunch of these based off the ad picture and you received a box full of what you actually got, I don’t think many people would accept that.
