The post was shared by the official handle of Notchtop Bakery and Café in Estes Park, Colorado, USA. According to them, the customer did not reveal his real name and instead called himself the 'Covid Bandit'. "Thank you 'Covid Bandit' for you generous gift to our staff. Your gift has touched many lives," read the caption to the post which has now gone viral.
