Sweet Eats: Maple Bacon Cupcakes

Yesterday while out & about, I stopped at the D.I.Ypsi Holiday Home Fair to kick it with friends while avoiding spending money.

My point to visit friends went without a hitch & I had a great time chatting it up.  My point not to spend money did not go as planned however. Well, I didn’t spend much but still…

I ordered myself a cocktail & while waiting for it, I glanced over to check out my environment. As soon as I looked to my left, I noticed a tower of cupcakes with bacon on them from Autumn Rae’s Sweet Treats & Street Meats.  I mean, I know bacon is like the candy of all meats but bacon on a cupcake?

I’m not going to lie, I had to have one! Sad thing is that I did not have any cash but I was so pressed to have one that I went to an ATM machine just to make this purchase.  I’m still pissed off that I have to pay 5 bucks to use a non-network ATM.  Anyway, I digress.

With cash in hand, I purchased a cupcake.  The cake was cinnamon flavored with maple flavored dreamy frosting & of course BACON!!!!!

When Sweet Suzy & the kids saw my interesting dessert, they all seemed to throw up in their mouths. I didn’t care because I destroyed the cupcake. It was too much like right. A perfect treat that offered too much and not enough at the same time.

The bacon was nice and crunchy, the cinnamon in the moist cake was just right & the maple frosting was over the top sweetness. I guess another way to describe it is like a food based sexual eruption!

From now on, I will never doubt what bacon can be in.  Oh, did I tell you about that peanut butter, banana, honey & bacon panini that I had this summer…. And don’t get me started on the bacon wrapper cheese filled dates that are to die for at the Centaur… Damn!

I don’t think I’ll EVER becomce a vegetarian as long as bacon is legal.
