RED VELVET CUPCAKES ~ Is it your heart’s desire?

(photo above: seen in TasteSpotting #74936)

RED is such a beautiful color.

Combine the color red and white and baking…what do you get?

Red Velvet Cupcakes

I baked these cupcakes using the recipe from the book
THE SWEET MELISSA BAKING BOOK by Melissa Murphy.
I hope to visit Melissa’s bakery in Brooklyn, New York soon and will blog about.
Until then, the recipe can be found on a blog by ROSY LIPS AND LAVENDER.

    Carmen, I love that picture. There's so much movement. It almost reminds me of a boulder in the water with little crashing waves.
