The Velvet is RED.

I found my recent muse on baking lately - it is the Red Velvet Cake. The first time I tasted was in Coffee Bean for lunch - the taste doesnt linger as it supposed to and yet till now I cant even remember how it taste. The next one is in Pavilion, which I think it is ok and I thought there is nothing much special for a red sponge cake with a cream cheese frosting. People said third time is a charm, I had my third red velvet in KLCC and that is the time it triggers my taste bud! (no, it is not just because I had a fabulous day on that day - Idi, I know u'll end up reading this, haha) So ever since that I had a thing with this Red Velvet Cakes and I always wanted to make one.

So recently, since there is approx 100gm of cream cheese left over from Idi's cheese cake and I have to use it fast before it expires, I decided to try and error for Red Velvet Cake and there are tons and tons of recipes in the internet (it is the matter of wether it suits your taste bud or it matches with the ingredients that you have in the kitchen)! Thank you GOOGLE~! The outcome were so good which I have to make them in 2 days straight!

Day 1. Red Velvet Cupcake - first attempt ever - real awesome! 
Day 2. The 8 inch Red Velvet Cake - taste awesome but I overpowered the cocoa powder.


Due to my muse in baking, some people suggest me to open a bakery. Hurm, are you seriously? I dont think bakery do well with me, but I was thinking more to cafe or patisserie where people can hang out and be more leisure with it - that is real fun! *mama, jom kita bukak cafe nak?*
