Iron Cupcake Takes on Thanksgiving

Just don't put turkey in the cupcakes, okay?

​Iron Cupcake San Francisco is in a savory state of mind right now. Last month's bout took on the theme of Oktoberfest, and this month the attention turns to the even broader challenge of representing Thanksgiving in cupcake form.

There's still plenty of time to brainstorm ideas for this competition, which takes place Monday, Nov. 23, at 7 p.m. at Leland Tea Company (1416 Bush at Polk). Bakers need to preregister by the 22nd and will get in free. It's five bucks for the rest of us, but that includes a house tea to drink and copious amounts of what's sure to be an interesting array of cupcakes.

While the organizers do list turkey in their list of suggested ingredients, we implore you to avoid the bird altogether. That's just gross.
