**Big Head Cupcake** is a male character in the *Bread Barbershop* series. He appeared in the first-ever episode, "Best Cupcake", and then becomes a recurring character through most of the show.

## Description

In the first episode, Big Head Cupcake was seen amongst other cupcakes, but was easily distinguished for his extremely large head compared to his friends/siblings, that he became singled out, alone and bullied by other cupcakes. This made him feel self-conscious and insecure with his abnormal appearance and desperate to fit in (just like Wilk with his misspelt label), and upon living in Bakery Town, he wore hats to hide his head. In a catastrophic state of depression, he came across a sign about the Bread Barbershop and upon learning of Master Bread's genius skills, he paid a visit to the Barbershop. To fix his problem, Master Bread confidently took him on as a client and comforted him, but along his session with Master Bread, his friends/siblings came to the Barbershop, demanding Master Bread to style their hair, as they were to be put on the display case, they also bullied/made fun of Big Head Cupcake and belittled Bread on helping Big Head and this made an offended Master Bread demand these rude cupcakes to leave, he got to work on a suitable hairstyle for the sad cupcake and finally managed to design and create a crown made of fruit on his client's head, which made his face look smaller as the crown covered much of Big Head Cupcake's head. Big Head Cupcake seemed satisfied with the results and Master Bread announced the price of the hairstyle, checking on a digital tablet and told the cupcake that he could pay him back over time. Big Head Cupcake then left the salon feeling more confident than ever and when he arrived near the display case, his design stood out to the Human Baker, who made him the star of his cupcake display, and this made the other cupcakes cheer Big Head Cupcake on.

Big Head Cupcake would later appear in other episodes, such as the Bread vs Baguette Episodes, where he lead a cheer for Master Bread as an audience member on Master Barber, when Bread was competing against his fierce rival, Baguette in the competition. Sometime before this, when Master Bread gave up on his Barber career and voluntarily lived on the streets, having lost hope of ever recovering his clients, due to the huge success of the Potato Chip Hair Salon with Baguette working there (who was considered a better Barber than Bread); Big Head Cupcake with his wife and son, visited Bread on the streets, comforting him and encouraging him to continue his Barber career, he also remembered the first hairstyle Bread ever gave him, and that while it eventually didn't last, Bread helped give him the confidence to make something of his life, it was these words from Big Head Cupcake and a video of Bread's other customers praising him that made Bread snap out of his sorrow and get back into his Barbershop.

## Appearance

He is a pink cupcake, with a huge head compared to other cupcakes in Bakery Town, he wears a red paper cake wrapper, and has human-like pink limbs, hands and feet attached to his body which match his face color. His eyes are round and blue. Except for his extra large head, his appearance is typical for his kind. At the end of episode 1, he then has a crown hairstyle made of fruit, chips and blueberries, designed by Master Bread, but is later seen bald without his hairstyle, confidently exposing his large head.
