1/4 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 bottle (1 oz) red food color

FESTIVE DEEP RED VELVET CHRISTMAS CUPCAKES



Festive Deep Red Velvet Christmas Cupcakes image

These cupcakes are absolutely beautiful! Great for holiday parties and get-togethers. The decorating paste is very concentrated compared to typical food coloring. Be careful not to get in on your hands...it is very difficult to wash off. It gives the batter a lovely bright red coloring. The sanding sugar provides an elegant finishing touch. Both items can be found at Williams-Sonoma or similar type stores.
