Miss Insomnia Tulip's 'Breast Cupcake' is being featured as a part of the 2012 Eat Your Heart Out show. The baking expert has followed the event's theme of blood, gore and guts with an anatomical dessert piece, sharpening the company's [food-as-art expertise](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looks-delicious).

The Breast Cupcake is deliberately modeled after and inspired by "...the educational pathology of breast diagrams." This source of motivation is certainly new to the sweet tooth scene, and Miss Insomnia Tulip has mastered the breakout dish with seeming ease.

This inner look at [bodily organs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zotter-chocolates-brains-eggs) is delectable despite the up close shots of veins and bulbous tissue. This is the beauty of Eat Your Heart Out 2012 as it sheds new light on a creative breed of [eerie treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tous-les-jours-spooky-delights).
