In honor of what would have been Elvis Presley’s 74th birthday, Sprinkles Cupcakes will be offering a banana peanut butter cupcake for one day only on Jan. 8.

Named ‘The King,’ it’s made from banana cake with peanut butter frosting and topped with a gold star -- a fitting tribute to the man who brought fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches into the popular consciousness.

Did we mention it will be available tomorrow only? Place your orders now. The King is dead. Long live the King! (Pictures of the cupcakes to come soon.)

Sprinkles Cupcakes: 9635 Santa Monica Blvd., Beverly Hills. (310) 274-8765. 9 a.m.-7 p.m., Mon.-Sat. ; 10 a.m.-6 p.m., Sun.
