There are two questions I’m constantly asked; Can I have the recipe to your Red Velvet cupcakes? and Where did you get that hair? These cupcakes and hair are really why I started the website. I’ve been asked for this recipe every time I bake a batch and I giggle to myself, because everyone expects them to be complicated. You will flip at how easy, yet sinful they taste.
My Red Velvet hair is another story. What I will tell you is that I go to Disconnected Salon, and it just keeps getting bigger and more fab-u-lous! Maybe it’s karma? I do bake for them every chance I get. I’m beyond smitten with everyone there. They are crazy-wicked-sexy-beautiful-talented.
If you’re in San Diego on Thurs, 09 Dec, please stop by for a very special benefit for the owner’s adorable dog (Save Sammy Bones). There will be plenty of Red Velvets for everyone.
Big, big thanks to my friend Mary (MC Photography) for taking these pics!

I’m a fan of ANYTHING RED!

Hi, Jenny. Fun post, as usual, though I forgot to comment on the last one (you’re the only to interpret “whoopie pies” as if it were a punch line from a defunct 1970s game show, such as “Match Game” – but you’re too young to have suffered through those…).
Thanks,
Dan

Jen- I couldn’t agree with you more! YOU are fabulous, my friend. I think a little Disco and big Hair needs to make an emergence.
Red Velvet is one of my favs. I can’t wait to try these. And now I know why you want me to come to San Diego to get my hair did……Disconnected Salon looks amazing!
Thanks Holly! You’ll love this recipe and you will LOVE Disconnected! That place is like eating a red velvet with electric glitter running through your veins! A multisensory experience.
Oh my gosh. We get to see the diva in the making! How fabulous! That’s a fun looking salon. And you know I’m a sucker for red velvet. Definitely a redhead thing.
Amanda! THank you for giving me a smile and a laugh to start my weekend off right! Disconnected is worth the drive from LA! XOXO

I know from experience that these are the BEST cupcakes – so yummy!!!! I haven’t been to your site in a couple of months since my baby girl was born – wow – what I have missed! Unfortunately, I’m now off all dairy and chocolate – how I miss them!!! Hope you’re doing well – love ya!
You, my dear, are a baking rock star!!! My mother-in-law used to tell me when knitting think and talk about the person the item is for. That way when they use it, they will feel your love. I definitely feel the love when I eat the very special RV cup cakes you made for me. Thank you so much! You are the best!
Tiffany- Thanks for your kind words. Let me know when you’re back on the dairy and chocolate and you will have a special treat my dear. XO
Wavefarer- I’m soo tearing up in the best way possible. I couldn’t agree more with your mother-in-law. This is exactly why I don’t bake in bulk for a living. I have to bake with love. Thank you for sharing that beautiful story with me and all your kind words.
Red’s my favorite color! I had these on Friday and they are delish!
YUM! I have to do this recipe!! I love cupcakes!
