Chocolate Cupcake with edible Mexican Chapulines (grasshoppers).
After being thoroughly cleaned and washed, they are toasted on a comal clay pan and they are prepared with garlic, lime juice and salt containing extract of agave worms, lending a sour spicy salty taste to the finished product.
Sometimes the grasshoppers are also toasted with chili, although it can be used to cover up for stale chapulines.
You can find snacks of grasshoppers all over Mexico
