Okay so I am not expecting that you will rush out and bake up these babies, but we thought that you enjoy looking and reading about them!

1. Salmon Cupcakes

I Really Like Food give us the Salmon Cupcake recipe along with, of course the salmon frosting!  The whole idea of Salmon and Cupcakes is just wrong to me, but hey, what do you think?  I do like one of the comments this post got, which was from Natalie who simply says “Say no to cupcake crossbreeding” and in this case I couldn’t agree more!

2. Broccoli Cupcakes

Sparrow Dream says, and I quote “Nothing I do has to make sense”, haha, I agree 100%, but there is no way I would try these, I admire her resolve to taste test them!

3. Beef Cupcakes

Now I could actually see myself eating these beef cupcakes from Dough Dough Kitchen because they really are not too cupcakey, just cooked in a cupcake tin, which is not a bad idea!  The only difficulty is the frosting, tomato or barbeque sauce?

4. The Honey Baked Ham Cupcakes

These cupcakes from Cupcake Project like the ones from above probably do not really deserve to be on this list because the reports are that they taste really good. Although in this case the ham presented a problem to bite through (easy solved if you eat them whole).  Cupcake Project also have a recipe for this one, if you are game?

I feel so lame, I talk up how I would try anything, but I am just not sure I would.

5. Sardine and Spinach cupcakes

Yup you heard right.  Ugh!  Cupcake Takes the Cake found this one created by Blogger Dog Hill Kitchen.  I chose the photo with the sardine’s head bitten off.  It is just really too gross to contemplate.

I did also find one forum where a lady admitted making liver cupcakes… all I can say is EWWWWWWWWWWWW

Do you sometimes get a crazy idea to do something a bit odd?  If so you are not alone, I get that all time, especially when I should be doing something else.

This is exactly what happened to me last weekend.  I was supposed to be making salads for a get together we were attending that afternoon, but as is often the case they just failed to capture my imagination.  I had done my best however with the little I had to work with, my ‘Stop, Go’ salad (all things red and green), a spicy pasta salad (but I think I got a bit excited with the chili!) and a boring but ever popular Greek salad.  So mid way through, with a kitchen littered with salad things, I embarked, as I do, on a cupcake mission!

To understand the thought process, you must understand that I had noticed the choc chips lurking in the pantry earlier that morning, and when I put something away from the dishwasher into the cupboard which contains the ice cube trays, all the lights flashed in my brain and I was off and melting chocolate.

The outcome was fish, all swimming to the right (because it is the ‘right’ way to go) except for one created by my daughter, but hey and I’m happy that she swims her own way!

Trying to find that perfect cupcake decorating idea for your father or husband’s birthday? Jenn sent us this fun cupcake idea that uses pretzel sticks for the fishing rod and goldfish crackers. Add a little frosting for the fishing line and you’ve got a cupcake that will put a smile on your fisherman. These would be fun to pack on a picnic or surprise your little or big fisherman on the next fishing trip.

These are a cute little group of cupcakes featuring a pig, ladybug, frog, and a fish. I think the little pig cupcakes are my favorite.
