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]
