Just Cookies, an Indianapolis bakery, refused to serve a college LGBT group rainbow frosted cupcakes for National Coming Out Day and the city went into an uproar. The Mayor's office launched an investigation and the local news was all over the story and supportive of our community.
The city's probe found the bakery's actions failed to comply with the local human rights ordinance rainbow-cupcake.jpgthat includes sexual orientation and gender identity. The city and the bakery have reached an agreement on how to move forward.
[Just Cookies] has reached a settlement agreement with the City of Indianapolis whereby it agrees to abide by the terms of the City's human rights ordinance in the future as a condition to keeping its lease in City Market and posting a notice of the policy at its place of business.
