Holy cupcake, Batman!

Yup, there is indeed a national day for just about anything you can imagine. Saturday is National Batman Day, and Sprinkles Cupcakes at The Linq is making sure it doesn't go unnoticed. The bakery has designed a limited-edition Dark Knight Sprinkles Cupcake, available in assorted flavors topped with one of four iconic designs.

If you're one of the first 100 people to show up Saturday dressed as Batman, you can get a Dark Knight cupcake free. Otherwise, they're $3.75 each, and they'll be available at the shop all day Saturday, while supplies last.

And hey, you can always use the costume for Halloween.
