The bacon's kinda throwing me for a loop, but these still look divine enough to give a try!

Thanks for the piping tip, Jessy! (no pun intended ;) ) Good idea with the bacon fat too. I microwaved the bacon so the fat all got soaked into the paper towels. Next time:)

For your piping, try twisting the bag about halfway down and just using the end with your dominant hand--your hand will tire slower and your lines will be nicer. Just remember to keep edging more frosting down and shake the bag to let the frosting settle a bit so you don't get air bubbles.

Also, I was recently inspired to com up with my own bacon cupcakes, but they were maple cupcakes and I used a swiss buttercream and added a bit of the bacon fat to it, which turned out really well, and I placed big pieces of bacon on top of each cupcake. Awesome recipe! I'll be sure to try it.

I've heard nothing but scrumptious reviews about these...I'm DIEING to make them. I'm a huge fan of bacon muffins, so maybe this weekend I will be able to whip up a batch of these.

These sound so good!

Like my friend always says:"If it has bacon in it, how could it not be good!?" LOL
After the bacon toffee... the chocolate and bacon cupcakes... MUST TRY!

A very merry Christmas to you, Kim!

Chocolate covered bacon is good, so why not chocolate bacon cupcakes? The caramel buttercream choice sounds perfect.

Wow, you know I always say that everything is better with some bacon, and these cupcakes really push that theory to the limit! I think I may have to try them just to be sure that it's really true! They look great!

Thanks everyone!!
@Katrina, I guess if you chop up the bacon in the food processor very fine, it might be more of a background note. It might actually help the flavor to infuse through the whole cupcake. In mine, there were slight chunks and you could definitely tell it was bacon when you got one. That's just how I like it :) If you try it, let me know how it turns out!

You are a brave girl - I don't think I could eat one of those.

But I will definitely vote for you!
