Patches and Cheesebert have big plans to take over the world, with cupcakes! Cupcakery of Doom is created by Trevor Reece, a writer for The Press Democrat newspaper's comics blog!
Nickelodeon greenlit Cupcakery of Doom for the Nickelodeon's global Animated Shorts Program after taking more than 100 pitches over three days during their first-ever open call for animated projects at Comic-Con International: San Diego 2014. The very first pitch taken by Nick's animation development team at the convention, Cupcakery is a comedic story about two nefarious friends — a bear and a mouse — with designs on taking over the world.
Cupcakery of Doom has been developed into an animated short and, as with all content chosen for Nickelodeon's global Animated Shorts Program, it has the potential to be developed into a long-form animated TV series.
Cupcakery of Doom follows two nefarious, eye-patch-wearing friends, Patches, a bear, and Cheesebert, a mouse, who set out to take over the world. To fund their doomsday device, the pair open a cupcakery to raise money, only to discover how much they enjoy the daily duties of owning a shop.
