DailyDirt: Meat + Cupcakes = Crazy Delicious
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
Cupcakes were really trendy for a while, but they’ve probably jumped the shark by now. Still, who doesn’t enjoy a good cupcake every now and then? Here are just a few examples of some interesting twists on the traditional cupcake — that include a few more animal parts than you might expect (or want).
- Cupcakewurst is actually somewhat meatless — it’s a sausage casing filled with cupcake batter. This dessert is baked, and then *grilled* a little before serving to provide a sweet ending to a meaty meal. [url]
- The Meatloaf Bakery in Chicago has created a burger cupcake with a cheesy mashed potato frosting. “That’d be a really good dessert for your kid’s surprise party, if you didn’t like your kid.” [url]
- If you live in the DC area, you can get a BBQ pulled pork cupcake for about $9 as a bar snack at the Bourbon Steak Lounge. It’s a cheddar-flavored biscuit in the shape of a cupcake, filled with pork… yum. [url]

Meat cupcakes?!? Oh no, having flashbacks.
Re: Re:
C’mon, “Sweeney Todd” wasn’t THAT bad.
I like roast pork fat, so I hope that’s the “frosting”
no bacon?!?
Come on….. There HAS to be a bacon flavored cupcake out there.

My brother-in-law was really into treats like this. I remember one birthday party where he made a meat cake for himself. It had like 5 different layers of meat with bacon for frosting. He died of a heart attack at age 27.
By the way, I wasn’t joking. It sounds like a joke but it sure wasn’t funny for his family. The autopsy found advanced arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries.)
Arby’s has been advertising a bacon flavored sundae…
The cupcakewurst *is* the shark jump of the cupcake.
