Life is what you bake it — these best friends left their stable jobs to open up a cupcake shop

Updated

After 20 years of friendship, Lily Fischer and Nima Etemadi decided to take the plunge, quit their day jobs and open up a cupcake bakery in Philadelphia. Today, "Cake Life" specializes in over the top creations like honey-lavender cake and unicorn "poop."

While the friends were cautioned not to go into business with friends or family, they didn't let that stop them. "Having had the long friendship that we had before getting into this, the trust is there -- it's been established for so long," Fischer commented. "And we're fun," Etemadi added.
