Crumbs Bake Shop Is Opening in Burlington

A chain of cupcake shops that recently opened its first Massachusetts location in Boston is going to be opening a second one, with this store being north of the city.

The Boston Globe is reporting that Crumbs Bake Shop is planning to open a new outlet at the Burlington Mall in Burlington, though the exact location within the mall was not given. Once it opens, the new shop will join another location on Federal Street in Boston's Financial District (that store opened in March of this year). It appears that the new Crumbs is hoping to open sometime in August, according to the article.

[July 25 update: Crumbs will be opening on the second floor of the Burlington Mall near the food court.]

[August 16 update: A sign outside the Burlington Mall indicates that the new Crumbs Bake Shop is having its grand opening today.]

Crumbs Bake Shop first started out in New York City in 2003 and now has more than 50 stores, mostly on the east and west coasts. The shops feature regular-sized cupcakes along with "colossal" cupcakes, which are six and a half inches high.

The website for Crumbs can be found at http://www.crumbs.com/

Thanks to a poster on the Boston Globe food chat for bringing this to our attention.
