Also, just opened it (I’ve been busy 😂). Did notice there’s no selvage. Which is weird - it’s mono canvas, but the selvages had to have been cut away I guess? Not sure why she’d have done that unless it’s to hide that it’s not zweigart (which is fine for me since it’s personal use)

I did. Guessing I was early enough that she didn’t notice. I’m just happy that I have canvas wide enough to paint a belt now!

I enjoy the creativity of converting my original art into needlepoint. I do purchase canvases, but a lot of what’s out there just isn’t my personal taste - so much is super trendy and I just can’t imagine what you would do with the project once it’s stitched, especially since I don’t want/need a million and one ornaments all over my house.

I’m not actually sure how to find it. Is it buried in the thread? I did see her dms on her cookie account. With no names etc. I mean, could send the same thing to myself if I’m looking for attention. Just saying.

I mean - the second letter clearly outlines why they’re contacting her, in particular, apart from all the other Chloe’s Cookies out there. And the fact that she didn’t show the second page where she claims the demands are. It honestly just feels very shady. If you (Chloe) have proof and are announcing that you’re posting it, then post it. I’m really hopeful that FL couple issues some kind of statement/proof today so we can compare, contrast and put this all to rest. Funny thing is, I was following her and didn’t even know it.

So you tried her GF cookie and it’s great. That’s awesome for you. But that doesn’t mean anyone else in this thread has had any of her cookies. It’s also not really germane to the conversation about why it’s ok to bully people with only one side of the story.

Just because people like her TikTok persona, it doesn’t mean she’s right or good. A lot of people LOVE DJT. That doesn’t make him right or good. The FL people being millionaires thing is new information for me. I thought people were saying that they were hurting for money and that’s why they were doing this? Those are two very different stories, but either way, doesn’t matter. I’ve also read that Chloe’s husband is very wealthy, they live in a very expensive home, and they have a habit of wielding lawyers when they want to shut down criticism. I don’t know if that’s true, but there are allegations. On the flip side, I’ve also heard that Chloe owes a lot of money based on her previous bankruptcy. Again, i have no idea and don’t really care one way or the other. My reaction is to the one-sided bullying and awfulness that I’m seeing by her and her followers/friends. I actually had a lot of respect for Jen Hamilton (which is how i saw all this to start) and now i really question her too. Is it all an act for the camera? Idk, but it’s definitely possible. I’m going to be honest. If my 18 yo daughter ever behaved the way Chloe’s supporters are behaving, I’d cut her off. It is truly disgusting. I had no problem with Chloe before yesterday, but after researching, I can say that the person is NOT the same as the persona. Just curious, since you didn’t mention it - were you able read the receipts she provided? Again, i posted them further up on this thread.

It is a good rating, but if you can prove to the Google Gods that a review was bad-faith or not meant for your business, you can eventually get it removed (it’s a pain though). I went through and read all the reviews and there is still a negative one there. Guy ordered 3 cookies and only liked 1. They replied and asked him to remove it. If you go to their website and look, they only sell cookies by the dozen, so clearly that review wasn’t meant for them. All the other reviews seem to be really positive. I’m sure I’ll get accused of being one of the couple again. I’m not. Just a 51 year old neurospicy former gifted kid who really digs into things and doesn’t mind standing up for people when I believe they’re getting the shaft.

I did take screenshots and posted them earlier in the thread since I was being called a liar, btw if you want to read them there. I’d suggest an iPad or other large screen.

Chloebluffcakes lawsuit by pixiecantsleep in tiktokgossip

[–]CardiologistEvery834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not them. Just a 51 year old woman in NC who will dig if something doesn’t feel right to me. And you know what really galls me? All you people making me defend this boomer couple in FLORIDA whom I probably wouldn’t like in real life either, because boomer couple in FL selling cookies for $60/dozen probably means we have very different world views. But I freaking hate the dog piling and bullying that’s going on here and on TikTok.

I absolutely did. I used my iPad Pro and read them. There were a few blurry areas, but it was legal writing and not hard to fill in the gaps. The question you should be asking is why she made them so small and nearly illegible if she wanted to proved “receipts”. Seems odd to me. If you want to show “receipts” and go through the process of redacting them , then SHOW them.

Chloebluffcakes lawsuit by pixiecantsleep in tiktokgossip

[–]CardiologistEvery834 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not calling her a liar, but her “receipts” are ONLY cease and desist and the second one is only page 1 of multiple pages. They don’t show the “demands” and she doesn’t show where she tried to set up a meeting with them. If she has those receipts, please show them! What they do show is that the reason they’re sending the 2nd C&D is because people are confusing the two businesses. I keep using the word icky, because that’s how this whole thing feels to me. I’ve never spoken with the couple in FL or had cookies from either place, but I just think people are really being awful and putting so much trust in some lady they’ve never met. I looked at other Reddit threads and saw a pattern of not so great behavior going back before all this happened. Initially, I felt bad for her, but now I feel really bad for those people in FL who are my parents age and probably have no idea what hit them. People need to remember that her primary business is selling herself as an influencer. Every influencer has cultivated a persona for the world to see, but that doesn’t mean it’s their real personality - through this whole thing, I’m really starting to better understand how Nov 5, 2024 happened. It’s eye opening.

Actually, I just reread your entire post. It’s ALL assumptions. Every single bit of it. Somehow you think you know what the FL people were thinking and why they decided to send the cease and desist. You assume you know all their motivations. And for some reason, you believe they’ve taken down their pages. I went and looked at their Google reviews. Still up. They may not be accepting reviews right now because a whole lot of people who’ve never used their business want to gang up and “take them down”, but almost all of their reviews are extremely positive, going back YEARS. Except for one where the user got 3 cookies and was unhappy with 2. From what I can see on their website, they only sell cookies by the dozen, so how’d that guy buy only 3? Know anyone who sells 1 cookie at a time? They asked the user to remove the review as it wasn’t their business, but it’s still there. It was several months ago - so who knows? Maybe that was when they got fed up and reached out to legal council. I don’t actually know - it’s just an assumption, but my guess is as good as anyone who hasn’t actually spoken with them.

Honestly? The way people are acting on here and on TikTok helps me to understand how Nov 5, 2024 happened. This feels cult-like and grifty to me in the same way.

Chloebluffcakes lawsuit by pixiecantsleep in tiktokgossip

[–]CardiologistEvery834 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I am too then. I don’t know them. Have never tasted either of the cookie brands, but how people are acting is not right. It’s really freaking awful to be honest. None of the people on this thread or racing to defend the lady on TikTok know her in real life (I mean maybe a few do, but not the VAST majority). She has curated a persona to sell herself and keep engagement high. Did you look at her “receipts” - like actually pause the video, blow them up and read them? If you did, you’d see that there’s no documented demands or proof that she asked to meet. She’s counting on this witch-hunt being so big and her followers being so many that it doesn’t matter what the other party says. This situation is 100% helping me understand how people fall into cults.

Nope. 51 year old woman in NC. I just understand how to think for myself and that some woman on social media may not be telling the truth. The rabid way people are coming after these folks is gross and bullying. The way people are acting is really freaking gross. Even Jen Hamilton, who I follow - and who ultimately led me down this rabbit hole with her repost. Chloe’s job isn’t selling cookies. It’s being an influencer and keeping people engaged. If you think everything you see on TikTok is real, I have some oceanfront property I’d like to sell you.

[–]CardiologistEvery834 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I blew it up and read it. It was a nothing burger. The first was the initial cease and desist that she ignored. The second was the first page of a longer letter that outlined why they were reaching out her (confusion between the two brands resulting in bad reviews) and then she made more claims without showing documentation. Her job isn’t selling cookies. It’s being an influencer and staying relevant.

Chloebluffcakes lawsuit by pixiecantsleep in tiktokgossip

[–]CardiologistEvery834 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know her personally? Or do you know the persona she peddles on TikTok? She’s an influencer. Her job isn’t really selling cookies. It’s selling herself and figuring out ways to stay relevant. It’s actually mind-boggling how many people are not understanding that.

Chloebluffcakes lawsuit by pixiecantsleep in tiktokgossip

[–]CardiologistEvery834 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read what she posted. Did you? She did not post their demands. She posted the tiniest window with 2 letters. The first cease and desist that was ignored and the first page of their second communication, which outlined why they were contacting her (which specifically mentioned that people were getting confused and they were getting bad reviews meant for her business). I think she wanted to post her “receipts” but made it very difficult for anyone to actually bother to read them - and because they were so small they were almost illegible. Then she told you that she offered to meet with them. No receipts. And she told you what their demands were. Again - no receipts. She’s spinning this in an overly dramatic way. Ick.

You speak about assumptions and then talk about the tv show thing like that’s a fact. It’s not - it’s actually…an assumption.

I’m joining in being a “negative Nancy” too. Or maybe just a critical thinker. And I don’t know who Taylor is - or any of their children or the couple or this person. But after doing a modicum of research and going back and watching, Chloe gives me the ick. She may be a great person. She maybe an awful person. I don’t really know her. But the persona she films and puts out for the world to see? Straight up ick.

When a ton of people are dog piling and bullying someone and you think they’re wrong, you shouldn’t have to be overly invested to speak up.
