    Where is a good place to get red velvet cake or cupcakes?
    I am doing red velvet cake or red velvet cupcakes for my birthday. But I need a cheap and good place to get them! I live in North Carolina. I looked at The Cupcake Shoppe Bakery! But any other ideas will probably help me a lot!

    I have baked up the premix from the grocery store and they were good.
    Cost about $1.00 a dozen but you got to wash the pan.

    And adding sugar free/natural applesauce instead of water will make it super moist! Happy birthday!

    How old are you?

    I may have another suggestion for a special ingredient.

    martinizing2 finds this helpful : I used captured/unnatural applesauce once.. . never again

    LOL! Yes, the unfree applesauce isn't as willing to do your bidding.

    That's your choice :)

    Don't let our tangent be the judge of applesauce in baked goods, though. I was serious when I said it made cakes very moist (and delicious).

    Don't judge this before you try it.

    Cream cheese and cherry jelly.
    Warm the cheese to room temp.
    Use about 2 tablespoons jelly per 8oz pkg CC.
    And 1 tbls lemon juice and beat the hell out of it
    (after you mix them together.)edit
    For at least 2 minutes with an electric mixer
    Or 2 1/2 hours by hand. ( maybe less)

    This is almost too good to feed to humans , so send the leftovers my way.

    Hello:

    Isn't a red velvet cake just a chocolate cake dyed red?
