THE Red Velvet

This is the recipe that ive been looking forward to make ever since i got the book! This is THE Red Velvet cupcake which is a musteat if u were to visit the Hummingbird. I went out to buy all the ingredients...it was all going so well...i even bought a piping bag!!

this is where it all went downhill starting from the weather :( it started raining on my way back...nevertheless, i was comforting myself with the thought of cozying up with red velvet cupcakes. I started making them and my mixture :

looks ok i guess...(here u go sam ur requested pic of the mixing process)

I baked it and........it was brown..... =.=|| where did all the red go??? i went on to make the icing .... it was too runny...=.=||

This is a failure... its not even red..and the icing was too runny...i started thinking what i did wrong...

• i bought an all natural red food coloring? i dont know if its one of the cause
• recipe said cream cheese..is philly ok??i used philly and it was too runny.. added some mascarpone to the icing mix
• or was it because i overbeat the icing mix? thats y it was runny?

I am not satisfied with the results at all and i will remake this recipe tomorrow with artificial red food colouring....less whisk time! hopefully itll work out tomorrow

:( :( :(
