I poured coffee into my cupcake and it was frozen! What happened?

Question

Idk! it was at a coffee shop and was cupcake was frozen!

Answer 1

first of all, why would you pour coffee onto a cupcake?  the cupcake probably just came out of the freezer.  I would have returned that cupcake so fast, it would have made those people's head spin.

Answer 2

What happened is that somebody didn't set the microwave properly for thawing out the cupcake. But good that you poured the coffee on it so that you didn't break a tooth biting into it first.

Answer 3

Bakers often freeze the cakes, then thaw them in the fridge prior to serving them.  This keeps them fresher longer when you bring them home.  However, serving a cupcake still frozen in the middle is just bad service.  Perhaps the owner was late that morning pulling them out, but still bad bad bad.

If they say baked fresh every morning some where in the shop - they aren't telling the truth.  Those were probably baked the day before or two days before (hopefully not longer!)
