Red velvet cupcake

Ooh la la! Somebody at Cake Couture gets what anticipation can do to salivary glands. This comes in its own little Chinese takeout box, tied with red ribbon: you untie the bow, pry back the flaps, and feast your eyes on this pretty perfection (check out the chic asymmetry of that swirl on top). It’s not your typical cream cheese frosting, but the butter cream atop a moist, cocoa-y and yes, velvety cake lives up to the hype.
