Red velvet cupcake
Hello dear readers! This is my first post in the space. I’m really out of words on how to start the post . But I have full faith in the almighty and you dear readers . I promise to give my best . All my recipes are tested and successful . Coming back to this recipe I partially adapted the recipe from a facebook food group member Vandana Pai Badal and then followed joy of baking recipe. The cupcakes came out awesome but I could not attain the RED colour which was really a sad part . I will edit the post as and when I get the desired colour . Red velvet cupcakes are nothing but fancy cupcakes with dashing red colour ..All it needs is some trial and error to get the perfect result .. I have edited this post and will be posting my latest pictures …(nailed it in the year 2014 )
