Butch Bakery takes the cute out of cupcakes

| That's Drill Sergeant Cupcake to you, maggot! |
Cupcakes are pretty, cute and small. Ladies can nibble pastel sweets without fear of reprisal, but what about cake-craving manly men? Butch Bakery in NYC has heard the call and manned-up one of the most effete treats going with their cupcakes for dudes. Woodland camouflage, checkerboards and wood-grain chocolate disks top the treats, frosted in gender-neutral vanilla and sober chocolate. What's not sober are the cupcakes themselves; see the Rum & Coke, a rum-soaked Madagascar vanilla cake paired with cola Bavarian cream.
Butch Bakery treats are currently only available in NYC, but founder David Arrick, possibly fearful of raids by armed sugar-seeking commandos mad for his maple cupcakes with chocolate ganache and bacon bits, has promised nationwide delivery as soon as possible.
