Crumbs Bake Shop, Inc. is a specialty bakery chain known for its gourmet cupcakes, cookies, brownies and coffee beverages. The company originally built its brand around a rotating menu of cupcake flavors, ranging from classic vanilla and chocolate to seasonal and limited-edition varieties, complemented by a selection of specialty cookies and other baked treats.
Founded in 2003 by Mia and Jason Bauer, Crumbs Bake Shop opened its first retail location in Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Over the next decade, the company expanded to operate dozens of storefronts across major metropolitan areas in the Northeast, including New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Florida.
After completing an initial public offering in 2011, Crumbs Bake Shop encountered operational and market challenges, leading to a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in 2014 and the closure of its retail network. Following the restructuring, the business was acquired by private investors and redirected its strategy toward non-retail channels.
Today, Crumbs Bake Shop primarily serves consumers through its e-commerce platform and select wholesale partnerships. The company continues to offer its signature cupcake flavors and bakery items, shipping nationwide in the United States and supplying goods to third-party retailers and foodservice providers.
