Is there a built-in class for creating notification badges?

Question

I've noticed that some apps (like the Facebook and LinkedIn iPhone apps) have notification badges inside the app (I'm not talking about the ones in the tab bar, I know how to create those). How are they achieving this? Are they using images or this there a built-in class for creating them?
