Though less devastating than banana-cream pies, cupcakes still provide effective suppressing fire during fancy dinner-party food fights attended by Larry, Curly, and/or Moe. Today's Groupon lets you lock and load with this smile-inducing ammunition: for $15, you get a dozen cupcakes at Sparkle Cupcake Company in Lenox Village (a $30 value).

Baking delectable cup-sized treats from scratch daily with the finest ingredients, Sparkle Cupcake Company douses palates in a blissful blend of moist, delicious cake and velvety icing. Out of more than 30 flavors, seven to 10 varieties are available in-store daily for sampling and overly curious finger-prodding. Lift the spirits of crying toddlers and on-strike supervillain henchmen alike with a 12-pack sampler of coconut snowball, sweet potato pie, apple martini, lemonade, watermelon, Vermont maple, German double chocolate, and more. Sparkle’s cheery and helpful staff will offer their recommendations while exchanging witty banter and crumpled-up baseball cards. Sparkle also offers sugar-free, gluten-free, vegan, and deer-luring cupcakes for customers who order a minimum of three dozen in advance.

Cupcake technology has advanced exponentially since frosting was ham-fistedly blasted by artillery cannon into cake-lined fields. Shedding cloying ammunition for high-powered mixers, today's Groupon to Sparkle Cupcake Company offers a convenient way to hand-catapult cup-sized cakes over tooth-walls. Customers are encouraged to call ahead.
