Cupcakewurst, Cupcake-Filled Sausages

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you stuffed a sausage casing with cupcake batter? Well, Stef of The Cupcake Project sure has, and she’s turned her curiosity into a horrifying reality with Cupcakewurst.

Using actual sausage casings, Stef filled them with chocolate batter, and baked up what could only be described as oven turds. The finished product also got a few minutes on the grill, and raspberry sauce for added effect. That effect being not wanting a hot dog for lunch.

Instructions for how to make your own Cupcakewurst can be found here.

There Ain’t No Party Like A Bug Cupcake Party

In what seems like a good way to help kill an overstayed food trend, an insect cupcake party was recently held. The bug-fest was to help celebrate the release of The Insect Cookbook in The Netherlands. The cookbook is infested with recipes, where bugs are the main source of protein — or gross-out factor, depending on what camp you’re in.

And not to be outdone by its miniature versions, the party also boasted an attempt at the world’s largest grasshopper cake. Yes, with actual grasshoppers included.

A 24-Hour Cupcake ATM Exists

Just when we thought that the cupcake craze was out, something like the 24-hour Cupcake ATM comes along and pulls us back in.

Brought to us by Sprinkles — who some credit/blame for starting this imperishable food trend in the first place — the Cupcake ATM has been installed in front of their Beverly Hills location. Converted and painted pink, the former cash machine dispenses cupcakes and several other items from the store, 24/7. But what, no drive-up? This is LA.

The official word from Sprinkles:

This automatic cupcake machine dispenses freshly baked cupcakes, cupcake mixes, apparel and even cupcakes for Fido! In the heart of Beverly Hills nestled between Sprinkles Cupcakes and the brand new Sprinkles Ice Cream, 24 Hour Sprinkles will be continuously restocked day and night with a variety of freshly baked cupcake flavors.

UPDATE: Gothamist is reporting that Cupcake ATMs will soon be available in New York City.

UPDATE II: Now with video evidence.
