My boyfriend loves my Red Velvet. But when he eats it, he slides the icing off or requests the cupcakes that haven’t been iced yet. Not because he hates the taste, but he’s got a sensitive tooth and the icing tends to slide in there to bother it. Nevermind the waste of delicious cream-cheese icing…he actually made me think outside of the box. I love the way cake taste by itself, regardless of the flavor. I know I’m not alone when I vow for how delicious cake is straight out of the oven!

The other day I started thinking about cookies. How I could turn my infamous Red Velvet cake into something like a cookie, but still soft like a cake?! I played around with my RVC recipe and after a few tweaks and a batch that didn’t turn out just right….WALLA!!! It was red velvet cake in a cookie…one that cookie monster would lose his marbles for.

V.Day, bootylicious, booze, and your boo…

As stated in a previous post, I am convinced that the lovey-dovey holidays should be about the sexes, equally. Tired of seeing men peruse the aisles in a frenzy the days before declaring their love, I created a special cupcake designed for them. While the female persuasion sits at home on their derrieres waiting for a gift in typical fashion, men adorn them with ordinary gifts (insert YAWN here). Well this holiday, we’re gonna put as much effort, if not more, into really showing how thoughtful WE can be, when we put our hearts, minds, booties, and bras to it! To my pleasant surprise, Celebrations.com picked up my sexy cupcakes collection and featured them in a blog!

Leopard bra and Bootylicious cupcakes

Celebrations.com, familiar to those who watch the hit WeTV show “I Do Over” with Diane Valentine, is filled with party ideas, online invitations, and all the party essentials you would need to make a celebration, legendary. I came across a brilliant post…“Eight Valentine’s Day Drinks to Booze Up Your Boo”! I immediately thought of how my cupcakes could be paired with one of these drinks. Talk about a Valentine’s day evening to remember…mmmph!

Drink after drink…I’m in awe…amazement…reading recipes…intrigued…inspired….confused, because I love them all! The beauty of the drink and the taste that it conjures up in my mouth….Arabian Nights or Love Potion Number 5? After reviewing them all and thinking about the “boo” in my life, this Valentine’s Day will be one to remember for a lifetime! Below is a picture of my favorite pairing with my infamous Red Velvet Lips… Arabian Nights.
