My guess would have to be.. A.

Okay this is tricky.... We have to find a word(appositive) that modifies a word.

anonymous · Answer

Hmm, Ok. Doesn't Little modify Bakery?

anonymous · Answer

A's wrong. Because we have to find what "The Bake Shack", which is an appositive, modifies.

anonymous · Answer

What's your second guess?

anonymous · Answer

The Bake Shake modifies Bakery. So My second guess would be C.
