Don't let the name Dead Elvis scare you away from these wonderful-sounding cupcakes by Vancouver's C & C Cakery, where you can get the recipe.

They write:
This year, we've decided to honor a ghostie who hasn't really gotten enough love lately. Yes, we all know he's around (some of you may think he's still walking around), but some high profile deaths (I'm looking straight at you, Zombie MJ) have put this guy out of the limelight. I'm talking about The King. The hunka hunka burning love. That guy in those blue shoes. You know, the one that went to the jail house with a hound dog? Or something like that?
Yes, these cupcakes were made just for Mr. Presley. Or, the memory of Mr. Presley. Sweet Honey-Banana cake, sprinkled with mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, were topped with the best peanut butter frosting you will have ever tasted. Now, because Ghost Elvis will probably haunt me if I decide to deep-fry anything, I decided to take these little treats in a totally different direction. Yep, these beauties are vegan. I know, Old Elvis would not be so into that. But I think Dead Elvis is a little more health conscience.
These guys will be entered in Cupcake Hero: Honey on I Dream of Buttercream's blog. Keep a look out and throw Dead Elvis a vote if you can. I don't want Mr. Presley to roll in his grave for naught.
