Designer Desserts: Short Stack

Bacon Flavored Cupcake - Oink Oink!

Our next review is Designer Dessert's "Short Stack" cupcake (Specialty Flavor).  Shauna and I have been wanting to review this cupcake for awhile because it looks so unique with the pig.  Besides, who doesn't love bacon? 

Presentation: 9/10  

There's a lot going on with this cupcake that we like!  It's not boring AT ALL!  We were confused by the flavor though.   It's name is "Short Stack," but it had bacon and a pink pig on top.  We were confused if it was going to taste like pancakes or bacon or both!  

Taste:

CAKE:  The cake tasted like a warm, heavy maple flavor.  It tasted like you were eating a pancake on a Sunday morning.

FROSTING: The frosting consisted of maple syrup flavored frosting, walnuts, bacon bits and a pink sugar piggy.  The frosting is VERY sweet on this cupcake!

Overall Rating: 

Shauna - 10/10 because of the presentation.  The cupcake tasted like you just made breakfast except a little more sugary.  Do not eat this cupcake if you do not like maple syrup!

Katrina - 9/10 because the presentation was very unique.  However, this cupcake make have been a little TOO SWEET.  Is there such a thing?
