I would retort, then, that I also have yet to perceive a difference in the drop rate of cupcakes versus any other event item that I've tried to farm. If there is a scaling effect, it is relatively small.

Edit: Tell you what, I'll upload the results from twenty Charr-bashing incidents (or until anti-farming code kicks in) at Nolani Academy to my webspace, and I'll let you use that sample to decide whether or not a loot scaling effect exists or not.

After 3 troll farmin runs, i racked up a grand total of 4 cupcakes

I don't think they're scaled. They're dropping for me as fast as the 4-leaf clovers, eggs, and bunnies dropped.

I'm just happy that they're extending the drop time until midnight Monday.

I did a couple farming runs and while I have no proof of whether cupcakes are part of loot scaling I only received one on each run so I just assumed they were also scaled down, but I could be wrong. I saw one person trying to sell cupcakes for 1.5k last night. Not sure if he was getting any bites, but that's the highest I saw them going for.

I'd just like to say cupcakes are about the coolest event item I've seen.

All this talk is getting me hungry now. Mmmmm....cupcakes.

Yes, that's when the event ended; didn't get any more after that...
