A Boston-area woman sparked a potential airline security threat this week when she tried to take a cupcake on a plane. The frosting? Too gel-like for TSA!
Rebecca Hains was able to pass through Logan Airport security with two cupcakes, but she was stopped on the way back from Las Vegas with one of them.
Hains said she had received the cupcakes as a gift and after eating one on the trip out west, decided to save the other for the flight back. NOT SO FAST!
No word on how the first one tasted, or what flavor frosting was on it.
"In general, cakes and pies are allowed in carry-on luggage," said TSA spokesman James Fotenos, adding they were looking into why this treat was taken.
Good news: Hains contacted the cupcake company, Wicked Good Cupcakes of Cohasset, Mass., which is shipping her a whole new batch free of charge.
Bad news: TSA is still making up rules as they go in every airport.
