DETROIT — Beginning today, Metro Detroiters with a sweet tooth will now be able to have their cake and drink it too.
Just Baked, a specialty cupcake and bakery shop, has signed a special licensing agreement with Faygo® to use the company’s iconic name as well as its flavored syrups to create the Just Baked and Faygo® co-branded cupcakes.
The Faygo® cupcakes, including Redpop, Grape and Orange flavors, will initially be available at area Busch’s and Hiller’s stores. Just Baked is also currently in discussions to offer the cupcakes at additional retail locations throughout Michigan. Suggested retail price for a six-pack is $6.99.
“We are thrilled and honored that Faygo entrusts their brand and flavors to Just Baked for our new line of cupcakes,” said Pam Turkin, owner of Just Baked. “Evolving our brand into grocery stores and other traditional retail outlets was always part of our growth strategy and we believe Michiganders will truly enjoy our new cupcakes.”
“What many people may not know is that Faygo’s flavors are based on frosting recipes,” said Al Chittaro, Faygo’s Executive Vice President. “After tasting Just Baked’s amazing cupcakes, we knew they were the ones to make this logical extension. We’re certain our loyal customers will agree.”
The iconic Faygo brand was started in 1907 in Detroit as “Feigenson Brothers Bottling Works” by Ben and Perry Feigenson, who were bakers in their native Russia.
Started by Pam and Todd Turkin in 2009, Just Baked has five metro Detroit locations: Ann Arbor, Livonia, Royal Oak, Novi-Twelve Oaks Mall and soon to be opened Canton. The bakery offers 50 different varieties of delicious cupcakes in addition to special occasion cakes. For more information, visit www.justbakedshop.com.
