We have something sweet child except let's do it after the TSA declared a cupcake security threat.

One business owner had a clever idea come up with a sweet treat that will pass.

Through any checkpoints joining us now is Kelly call him from silver bakery in Rhode Island.

Seizing on an opportunity this is capitalism.

At its purest at -- sweetest.

Sorry -- -- Kelly nice to see you this morning how did you come up with this idea and tell us about it.

-- basically cupcakes are really just a fun products and we saw everything that happened with Rebecca Haines.

And I thought why not have fun and just create this kind of spoof cupcake.

-- -- really what we did is we just -- developing cake.

At about three ounces or less of frosting.

Packaged in a one courts he -- bag.

But a little tongue in cheek boarding pass with that and decided -- out to promote and it's really -- taken off no pun -- -- out -- we had.

We have Rebecca -- on yesterday and of course just updating our viewers who may not remember the story -- pocket was confiscated.

At the airport because it's in a glass jar -- when you open it up.

You see up.

Frosting right away and the TSA said that was -- gel like substance that they found dangerous -- -- -- -- it is dangerous -- -- -- -- -- -- can get -- there's nothing will now -- now what thinks you may think viewers will actually be TSA friendly.

Well it doesn't appear to 311 guidelines.

So we're actually going to test it out later on this morning at TF Green airport in Rhode Island hole.

So we'll hopefully see that it will make its way through the security checkpoint and it will go to wherever it hits it out.

Are you worried all at at all about the the waffling of some of the TSA you go to units fly from New York to -- say they don't check you for this -- -- from Vegas to here they do check you for -- so may get out of Rhode Island but it may never get back from Colorado.

Right yeah I mean I -- understand how Rebecca Haines was concerned with the inconsistency.

I think anything they can do to protect us is a good thing.

If I was in their shoes I probably went on the same thing.

Nancy Kelly yesterday.

Had they sent the cupcakes -- -- I did not -- want to make sure that it wasn't dangerous.

Now I'm gonna have to chase one of yours also to make sure it's not actually a weapon how fast not yet -- there.

Quickly can we can do pretty fast and -- before the end of the show and get them here from.

Silver spoon in Rhode Island no wonder she was -- PR before opening of this over 700 -- brilliantly done.

And Kelly call again thanks so much went looking for -- you that is part of your children in my process -- -- -- to -- them thanks.
