The Rapture came and went and I got was to eat these cupcakes.

What better way to spend the Rapture than with all of your friends you know won't be beamed up to the great beyond, some drinks, and cupcakes.

These were spiced mini cupcakes with basic red frosting.  The cake itself was tasty enough to not need any frosting, so I just pipped the letters on and left it at that.

When using spices in cakes, always put more cinnamon than they call for (by 25%-50%) (and vanilla if you can 50%-100%) but watch out for nutmeg.  Nutmeg so easily overpowers that your mouth is left tasting like a floral shop mixed with a pumpkin pie for the next twenty minutes.
