The Urban Cup announced on social media Tuesday that it will be closing sometime after Valentine's Day.
It will be replaced by Crave Cookie Dough, said Tracey Withoelder, manager of the downtown cupcake shop.
"We wish them nothing (but) the best," Withoelder told the News-Leader in an email.
The cookie dough shop's Facebook page said it plans to begin offering "edible, safe to eat cookie dough," cookies, cookie sandwiches, shakes, coffee, sundaes and more in the spring. A message left with the number listed for the business was not immediately returned.
In a Facebook post, The Urban Cup informed its customers the store had been sold to a new company.
"Our little cupcake shop has called Downtown Springfield its home for the last seven and a half years," the post reads. "You, our customers, have included us in some of the most memorable moments in your life. We've been at your weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, office parties, school parties, date nights, study groups, bad days, wherever you've needed us, we've been there. So it is with an especially heavy heart that we announce that our time with you has come to an end."
The cupcake shop opened at 325 E. Walnut St. under the name The Cup in 2010. In 2015, it changed ownership and reopened as The Urban Cup.
The post said the shop will remain open through the week of Valentine's Day and will update customers on when the last day will be.
"Thank you to everyone who stood by us through thick and thin and continued to support us through the new name, menu changes, marketing faux pas, etc. Many of our customers and neighbors have become friends, and this is the reason we can smile and feel so incredibly thankful to have gotten to come in day after day to the most fun job anyone could wish for," The Urban Cup said.
