Doctor Who Cupcakes and Pandorica Cake: World’s Sweetest Prison

Remember that episode where the Doctor finds the Pandorica and every enemy that he has ever ticked off descends on Stonehenge to give him some payback? Well, this is that. With cupcakes for the characters and a cake for the Pandorica.

All of the cool kids are represented here: Daleks, Amy and Rory, the Doctor, Weeping Angels, Sontarons and more. It is another amazing creation from Chef JB Cada and Stephanie Santos from The Regali Kitchen.

It’s practically a whole episode redone with sugar and flour and fondant. Doctor Who? Doctor Delicious, that’s who. Doctor goes good with a cup of milk and maybe some ice cream on the side.

Captain America Cupcakes: Cuptain Americake

Out of all of the Avengers, Captain America is probably my least favorite. But he might be able to win me over with some of his awesome cupcakes. You know they are the most direct way to a man’s heart.

These perfectly patriotic superhero treats were made by Hundred and Thousands Cupcakes. While I personally love the ones that are formed in the shape of Captain America’s head and winged cowl, the shields are pretty great too. Though you probably couldn’t bounce any bullets off of them.

I Would So Exterminate These Dalek Cupcakes (in My Stomach)

If it wasn’t obvious enough already, we’re pretty big fans of Doctor Who around here. I also like to eat – especially sweets. So when I saw these delicious looking Dalek cupcakes, I started drooling as much as my dog does when I’m eating steak.

They were made by DeviantARTist Nomokis, and they sure look tasty. She made them using cake mix, donut holes, cake rolls, mini marshmallows, candy sticks, and some unnatural looking food coloring. She had me at “donut holes.”

Want to make some Dalek cupcakes for yourself? Check out Nomokis’ recipe over on her Tumblr. However, you do need to be careful when you try and eat them. You never know when they’ll start to cry out for your extermination.

Amazing Frankenweenie Cupcakes Look Like Tim Burton Could Have Baked Them

I’m really looking forward to checking out Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie. Early buzz is that it’s pretty great, and I just love Burton’s dark humor and animation style for his latest Disney flick. While we wait to get to the theater to check it out, why not relax and enjoy some cupcakes? I think I will…

These truly impressive Frankenweenie cupcakes were made by Death By Cupcakes, and feature the likenesses of all the major characters from the movie, including Mr. Rzykruski, Nassor, Elsa, Edgar, Victor, Persephone, Toshiaki, Weird Girl, and of coruse, Sparky the dog.

Each cupcake was lovingly hand-painted with incredibly accurate detail, and if they taste 1/10th as delicious as they look, I’d eat the whole plate if I could. Then I’d try to bring them back to life by jolting them with electricity them so I could eat them all over again.

Cupcake Nuggets Are Fried Up For Your Enjoyment: Get The Recipe

Cupcakes have been an obsession of food connoisseurs everywhere for years, and we’ve seen some weird creations thus far.  The Cupcake Nuggets?  Extremely original – no sarcasm.  Savor this moment, friends, because my posts are generally dripping in sarcasm, and my fried chicken wings are always dripping in grease.  If you can’t make transparent spots in a pile of napkins, you’re not doing it right.

Cupcake Project is the mastermind / evil scientist behind this wonderful creation.  I just have one question: is the world prepared to handle this kind of treat and the power that lives within it?  Said power: 10,000,000 calories that go straight to your sexy love handles and turn them into (still sexy) love safety bars.

So, they look delicious, but what exactly are Cupcake Nuggets?  Prepare to have your collective mind blown, friends, because this is a little bit of cupcake-ception and a whole lot of fried oil.  Each Cupcake Nugget is a carefully crafted piece of cupcake which has been breaded with cupcakes and then deep fried in a vat of goodness.  Yes, they were designed to look like chicken nuggets, but I can assure you that they taste like the world’s favorite snack.  (Which is cupcakes, according to the same statistician who said that his cologne works every time sixty percent of the time.)

The special sauce pictured above is meant to look like barbecue sauce, but it’s actually raspberry jam!  (The baker had almost as much fun trying to stick to the chicken nuggets theme as I did launching pennies at the children playing in the snow, but that’s a story for a different time.)

I have been told that the Cupcake Nuggets taste like donuts with a crispy exterior, but surely you’ll want to grab the recipe and experience the slices of heaven for yourself!  If you’re not ambitious enough to try making these treats, then I’d recommend you hop on over to the Cupcakewurst Cupcake-Filled Sausage or the Ned Stark Cake Pops if you’re a Game of Thrones fan like me.  Tyrion Lannister for President 2012.
