You should mention that next time she needs to link to the original baker's picture and company. She'd be pist if someone stole her pics and ideas without due credit, right? Maybe phrase it as more of a professional courtesy instead of not blatantly ripping off someones ideas and committing cupcake plagiarism.
Yeah, I was planning on doing that once she put up her own cupcakes. Give praise, then criticism.

MH makes furniture and he had his own website...he recently found another start up furniture designer who had ripped pictures from MH's website and put up the pictures as his own work. It infuriated MH. He emailed the other designer and asked him what was going on and to please remove the pictures.
I'd be tempted to tell the original baker--and send a link to your friend's site and then let HER handle it.

LOLOLOL at the new default.
Also LOLOLOL at "people would be confused" Um, unless the name of your cupcake business is "Moron's pharmacy" no one is going to be confused without a stolen pic.
Confession: When I started making my tiles a couple years ago, I saw a tile at a trade show that I thought was pretty, snapped a photo of it, and put it on my business FB page. I captioned it, saw this at the trade show today. Could duplicate if anyone likes it. Because at that point, I didn't have a lot of examples. The owner found out, and was soooo mad at me. She messaged me five times to take the photo down. The first message I got late at night, and heaven forbid I didn't get up right that second and take it down, because by the time the morning rolled around, I had four more increasingly hateful messages. I truly did not think a thing about it! Lesson learned.
How is that cupcake maker any easier than just using your oven? It's probably a pain in the ass to clean, right?
Everyone knows that a *real* baker only uses the cutest new pink kitchen fads to bake.
You're obviously an amateur.
eta: vicki: do they actually work? or are they about as useful as the "quesadilla maker" I got for Christmas?
You shut your mouth about the quesadilla makers. I have had one for years and like the way my quesadillas turn out on there way more than when I do it without one.
Well I'm obviously not a quesadilla connoisseur, because mine just pisses me off and gets crap everywhere, and nothing sticks together. Or there could be, you know, user error. Potato, potahto.
