Back in April, the Bleeding Heart Bakery at 1955 W. Belmont created a line of Top Chef inspired cupcakes, one of which was a spicy chocolate version topped with a faux bacon rose. At the time, we pined for a real bacon cupcake. Well, Bleeding Heart heeded our call and here it is -- an organic bacon peanut butter chocolate cupcake. Good god. We have not tried one of these bad boys yet, but we will remedy that situation shortly.
