    offensive at a kids party, yes. in general, just really tasteless.

    Neither my recently-turned 13yr old nor her friends would have ANY idea that was anything other than a pretty blue sugar cupcake topping. Then again I don't any of MY friends would have a clue either (I certainly didn't). What sheltered lives we must live.

    I did bake some vagina cupcakes for my daughter to take to school when she was about 9 though. That was pretty funny (she told everyone they were mouths).

    :happy:

    If they're handing them out at a methadone clinic, that might be offensive, or at least insensitive.

    But otherwise? Whoever finds these offensive had best never come to my house for a Halloween party.

    I think people look for reasons to be offended.

    Those cup cakes look delicious!

    I thought you were talking about the process of taking a cupcake, breaking it in half, then putting the bottom part upside town on the icing and making a cupcake sandwich.

    Either way, both things are not offensive. I mean I wouldn't serve them at my little cousin's birthday, but the meth on the show is rock candy anyway so what's the big deal.

    That was my initial thought too - and I could see how some very uptight capcake-baker might get offended at someone de-constructing their glorious efforts in order to eat it. Cupcakes are srs bsns here for sure

    I'm still eating candy cigarettes...



    I loved candy cigarettes, especially the gum kind with the "smoke"

    Make it yourself! It's just cooked sugar!

    Right, you just need a good apron and some goggles and...

    Actually I wondered if it was some kind of jelled topping since the rock candy would seem to be a bit much. Like chunks of some pectin-y substance? Chunks of blue Jello?

    Lol um. No goggles required. Cooking sugar is one of the MOST simple things. Have you never made your own caramel, either?

    Wet method: water + sugar in a pot.
    Dry method: sugar in a pot.

    Easy peasy.

    Well, I was making a joke about making rock candy being like cooking meth, you see. I've made caramel, yes (and I make toffee every xmas at least), but I would argue that the dry method is not for amateurs.

    Just because I'm clueless and naive... I would have thought it was a cool idea for a cupcake!
