Most men would agree that bacon tastes good with anything, but now they may actually be able to convince their female counterparts, because now bacon comes with dessert.

BETWEEN Boutique Café & Lounge (1324 N. Milwaukee) has created the Sweet Corn Cake, a dessert featuring candied bacon.

The $6 menu item consists of a Peruvian-inspired sweet corn cake base, topped with vanilla ice cream, a sweet and savory jalapeno marmalade, and a huge portion of caramelized, candied bacon.

If you've ever been to BETWEEN, then you already know it's one of the most romantic spots in the city. Now you can lounge behind the sheer red curtains, whisper sweet nothings in your partner's ear, and lovingly feed her a spoonful of sweet, crunchy -- bacon.

Forget bacon and eggs for breakfast or BLTs for lunch, bacon for dessert is where it's at.
