Cat Meme-Tributing Treats

These Grumpy Cat Cookies by Whipped Bake Shop Will Make Sourpusses Smile

— January 22, 2013 — Pop Culture
These Grumpy Cat Cookies by Whipped Bake Shop are perfect for the crabby and cranky love of your life. Paying tribute to Grumpy Cat, a meme that has since exploded to Internet stardom thanks to reddit, these biscuits are scrumptious sarcastic. This meme is hilarious because of its cynical nature and its ability to turn even the happiest moments into dire pools of despair.

Whatever happiness exists in a sentence, holiday or song, one can trust that Grumpy Cat will sniff it out and destroy it. One of his most famous quips is "I had fun once. It was awful." It is no wonder that this ill-tempered feline would not be a fan of Valentine's Day, a day of unrestrained love and affection.

It is ironic that these Grumpy Cat Cookies by Whipped Bake Shop are so sweet, but their feline form is unashamedly sour. For those who love cookies and those who equally love memes, these biscuits complete with pessimistic conversation bubbles will add a dash of sentimental sarcasm to February 14th.
