‘Racist’ cupcakes banned from French pastry shop - Securb - 03-28-2015

My Dad would have loved this he would have picked up a dozen to the dismay of my Mom. I would admit I would have a WTF moment if I walked in a bakery and saw these but I would pick up a couple for the laughs.

Quote:A bakery in the French Riviera has been banned from displaying cupcakes of a naked man and woman made out of dark chocolate - because they were inciting 'racial hatred'.
The 'God' and Goddess' cakes, which topped with the chocolate figures of a naked, plump man and woman with pink lips and protruding genitalia, were deemed offensive by a French court after a complaint by a shocked resident.
A judge concluded that treats - sold in a 'boulangerie' in the town of Grasse, NIce - showed 'two people of colour in grotesque and obscene attitudes', adding they violate 'human dignity, especially that of the African people or people of African descent.'
