NY bakery stands strong after Whoopi Goldberg’s claims spark backlash

Whoopi Goldberg news

New Yorkers rallied around Staten Island’s 145-year-old Holtermann’s Bakery after Whoopi Goldberg alleged on The View that the bakery refused to make her Charlotte Russe desserts due to her political views.

Goldberg, offering no evidence, claimed the bakery cited “oven issues” but implied the refusal stemmed from her liberal politics, prompting disbelief and criticism from loyal customers.

Patrons dismissed her accusations as baseless, alluding to the bakery’s apolitical reputation and longstanding community presence. Many expressed disgust, urging Goldberg to leave politics out of local businesses.

The incident comes amid Goldberg’s broader critiques on The View where she has drawn fire for controversial comments, including blaming grocery price hikes on store owners rather than the Biden administration.

Despite portraying herself as relatable to working-class struggles, her estimated $60 million net worth and multimillion-dollar salary have invited skepticism.
