In 1796, the first known mention of a cupcake-like baked good was found in a recipe published by Amelia Simmons in American Cookery. The actual term cupcake was first documented in an 1828 cookbook by Eliza Leslie. By the 21st century, designer cupcakes became all the rage. Specialty cupcake shops have taken off in popularity, and the largest chain of cupcake shops, Crumbs Bake Shop, is publicly traded on the stock exchange. The TV show Sex and the City helped popularize the Magnolia Bakery cupcake shop, and the Food Network’s Cupcake Wars have also inspired the proliferation of gourmet cupcake shops.
