Kopp’s “Hey Cupcake” flavor was featured as the flavor of the day for “National Pro-Life Cupcake Day” on Oct. 9.
Kopp’s Frozen Custard has apologized after adding a flavor of the day and linking it to anti-abortion rights. On Monday, the Milwaukee shop released its October “Flavor Preview,” which highlights selected flavors for each day of the month and which will sometimes align with a national holiday or special commemoration. In its original preview, The cupcake features vanilla custard, yellow cake pieces, and thick fudge topped with mini rainbow chips.
