Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- The food coloring can be added at any step. Its personal preference to add mines at the end. Honestly, you can skip it but I do warn it plays mind tricks on you when you're eating a red velvet cupcake that isn't red.
- My go to sweetener at this time is allulose but I have had great success with monk fruit as well. If you don't know what allulose is here is a video explaining it all.
- Recipe for the cream cheese frosting is really straight forward. Avoid granulated sweeteners when preparing. If you don't I have found sticking granulated in a small coffee grinder gives great powdered results.
