New York, New York, November 14, 2011 — Crumbs Bake Shop, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CRMB)
(formerly known as 57th Street General Acquisition Corp.), a national neighborhood
bakery and the largest U.S.-based cupcake specialty store chain, named Julian R. Geiger as the
Company’s new President and Chief Executive Officer, effective today. Jason Bauer, who co-founded
the Company’s operating subsidiary, Crumbs Holdings, LLC (“Crumbs”) and served as its President and
Chief Executive Officer since 2003, will become Senior Vice President of Business Development.
A member of the Company’s Board of Directors since May 2011, Mr. Geiger also currently serves as
Chairman of the Board of Directors of Aeropostale Inc., a mall-based, specialty retailer of casual
apparel and accessories. From 1998 to 2010, Mr. Geiger served as Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman of Aeropostale, which grew from about 110 stores in North America to over 900 stores

Jason Bauer stated, “Since co-founding Crumbs with my wife Mia in 2003, we always knew that Crumbs
would reach a point at which we would want to recruit a leader with proven skills and success in
leading an expanding retail business. As we are currently operating 45 stores, I believe that now
is the time for such a change. The entire Board joins Mia and me in welcoming Julian to the Crumbs
family. ”
Julian Geiger, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “I am pleased to be joining Crumbs at
this stage of its development. I look forward to meeting the entire Crumbs team, to understanding
the opportunities for growth, and to contributing to the expansion of this exciting brand.”
