Red Velvet Cupcake

Red Velvet Cupcake

EverydaySweetened

Red velvet cupcake is a classic American dessert characterized by its vibrant red crumb and subtle cocoa flavor, traditionally enhanced by a reaction between acidic buttermilk and natural cocoa powder. The tender, moist cake is topped with a thick layer of cream cheese frosting, creating a signature sweet-tangy contrast. While recipes vary, most commercial versions derive their bold color from food dye and contain significant sugar and saturated fat from buttercream or frosting.
