Possibly, but it would be extremely weak. Several types of liquid explosives can be mixed into a paste-like form and combined with colorant to look something like cupcake frosting. A cupcake wouldn?t be a particularly effective weapon of terror, though. Attackers would likely need several times the weight of frosting on even the most decadent cupcake to threaten a commercial airliner, and it would have to be tightly packed in a container rather than sitting atop a pastry. If a traveler had a full-sheet birthday cake, the TSA would have a somewhat stronger case for confiscation. (The agency is investigating the circumstances surrounding the cupcake incident but has publicly stated that passengers usually are permitted to carry cakes and cupcakes through security checkpoints.)
