Community Comes to Rescue Bakery that caught Backlash for Pride Cookies

A Texas bakery that was overwhelmed with complaints and order cancellations after debuting a new Pride Month-inspired cookie has been rescued by its community.

Among the hundreds of people who ordered the rainbow-frosted, heart-shaped cookies is Brian Cuban, the brother of billionaire Mark Cuban. "When things slow down a bit, let us know if shipping is possible," a message from Cuban reads. "I'd like to support you. If shipping isn't possible, I'll buy some by phone or email and you can donate my cookies to a local LGBTQ org or children's charity."

The owners of Confections bakery say after the initial wave of cancellations last Tuesday, the Pride cookies have been selling out daily.
