Masterpiece Cakeshop Baker Sued Once Again over Refusal to Make Gender Transition Cake

A Colorado baker who won a case before the Supreme Court in 2018 over his refusal to make a custom wedding cake for a same-sex couple is facing a new lawsuit after declining to make a birthday cake that celebrated a transgender woman’s transition.

Autumn Scardina tried to order a cake from Masterpiece Cakeshop that was blue on the outside and pink on the inside in honor of her gender transition, on the same date that the Supreme Court announced in 2017 that it would hear baker Jack Phillips’s appeal in the wedding-cake case.
