    Alistair Bruce of Bruce Of the Broch bakery and butcher shop in
    Fraserburgh explained his award-winning creation: "I thought we
    could produce a cupcake from layers of perfectly proportioned
    haggis, neeps and tatties to offer customers something simple and
    different -- all they have to do is heat it in the oven."

    While looking that up I came across another version of a haggis
    cupcake. Make shortcrust pie pastry and line a muffin tin. Bake
    blind. Spoon in cooked haggis. Top with mashed potatoes and brown
    the potato under the boiler and serve. No turnips in that version
    although you could add a layer of mashed turnips between the haggis
    and the potato if you were so inclined. It's actually more of a tart
    than a cake I suppose.

    Seems so... although it probably fits the British definition of a
    "cupcake"... terms do seem to be different from place to place... ;)
    I'd be willing to try either version... at least once, anyway... ;)

    ... Haggis pakora is a highly improbable but real Indo-Caledonian
    alliance

    And that could be interesting to try as well... :)

    Now try to imagine haggis spring rolls and quesadillas. Apparently
    they too are real things.

    Speaking of fusion.... (G) Could be interesting, too, I suppose... :)
