Red velvet cupcakes (Dessert)
Red velvet cake tastes like very mild cocoa with a slightly tart edge. The cream cheese frosting is the most forward flavor. Perhaps even more important than the taste is the texture: smooth, soft, tender and light with creamy icing.

I don't like it at all. Tried making it three times and always comes out dense with a weird flavour.
