Apparently an inside joke.
Wild stabs at guessing the meaning won't get you any closer to unravel it.

Wendy "Cupcake" Kaplan was the Duplication Specialist and Kellie "Twinky" Walker was her assistant.
Duplication Specialists were the ones responsible for burning the games to CD/DVD, hence the title "burning goddesses".
