Kylie Jenner Has Been Called “Cheap” Amid A Small Business Owner’s Exposé

And just days later, the famous family’s approach to their finances has been called out again — but this time it was Kim’s billionaire little sister Kylie Jenner at the center of the discourse.Pierre Suu / Getty Images

On Tuesday, small business owner Amy Yip took to her cake company Yip.Studio’s Instagram account to reveal that an event planning company had got in touch with her on Kylie’s behalf weeks ago.

 

In her posts, Amy explained that she told the team her prices in her first email, and even kept her schedule clear as she planned to fly herself from New York to Los Angeles to make a bespoke cake for Kylie’s upcoming event.

I was even willing to have it coincide with a pop up in LA so that I would be able to cover the cost of travel and accommodation myself.”Marc Piasecki / WireImage

Amy then claimed that she had to make a deck for Kylie’s team to give examples of what she could create. Sharing screenshots from the presentation, Amy told followers: “I spent hours making a deck for them without any kind of deposit or dime.”

 

And the exposé was seemingly triggered by Amy receiving a subsequent email from the event planner that said that Kylie does not have “the budget” for one of Amy’s cakes.

After her initial posts, Amy revealed that she had been contacted to delete her Instagram stories. She also reiterated why she had been left so bothered by the rejection — suggesting that her prices were not a valid reason as she also accused Kylie of ordering cheaper knock-off versions of her unique cakes in the past.

 

After sharing a photo of the star posing with a white cake adorned with red roses and strawberries in October, Amy told followers: “They’re asking me to take this down but I didn’t sign any NDA.”

And had they also not already gotten this knock off in the past I’d be annoyed that I wasted time making the deck but it’d be fine,” she insisted. “But the price?”Stephane Cardinale – Corbis / Corbis via Getty Images

“It’s unfortunate for [the event planner] that their client had a knock-off of my cake months ago,” Amy continued. “But they should have known this before reaching out to me and using the status of their client to get away with wasting my time.”

 

According to Yip.Studio’s website, Amy’s smallest cakes start at $350, with the most expensive options costing $775. And considering the Kardashian-Jenner’s known wealth, many were left confused by the fact that Kylie apparently couldn’t factor this cost into her event’s budget.

“That’s embarrassing for the family 😵‍💫😵‍💫” somebody else commented. Another echoed: “‘Billionaire’ that can’t even afford a cake, that’s a little embarrassing…”

But some cynics had other ideas, with many social media users theorizing that Kylie thought that she would be able to get a cake for free due to the exposure that she can offer the small business on social media.

“More than likely they reached out to multiple bakers and went with whomever was cheapest/willing to do it for exposure,” one person claimed.

Somebody else added: “So true, I bet they are trying this in all directions and are just waiting who will be in to ‘take this exceptional and unrepeatable’ chance to make something for KarJenners in hope of their brand visibility but they are just cheap.”Instagram @khloekardashian / Via instagram.com

“They thought she would just offer it free since it’s them,” one more agreed.

The Kardashian-Jenners are well-known for their parties, with the family regularly documenting elaborate events for each of their birthdays as well as holidays on Instagram.

While it is unknown which event this particular cake was being arranged for, it is Robert Kardashian’s birthday in mid-March — which also happens to be St. Patrick’s Day.
