I dont need to attend baking class. By merely viewing and following your baking instruction is enough for me make a very delicious cupcakes and muffins. I love you ms stephanie. Muahhh. 😘😘😘😘

[@joyofbaking]

You can make a good substitute for commercial buttermilk. Stir 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar into 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk. Let stand 10 minutes at room temperature and it's ready to use. You can make cake flour. For 1 cup (100 grams) sifted cake flour, sift together 3/4 cup (85 grams) sifted all purpose flour and 2 tablespoons (15 grams) cornstarch (corn flour).

[@sangeetadialle1145]

Thank you so much...😊this helped me a lot....lots of love to you.

[@palvyas1]

By far, these are the best red red velvet cupcakes, I have ever had. Thank You. Also, all your recipes are super delicious. When it comes to baking. I prefer your recipes. Thank you again for sharing with the world.

[@samanthahouston5480]

Thank you for these! Im an American living in Germany, and its nice that you mention grams and mL as well as american measurements. I really appreciate that. :) Thank you. These videos are great and clear and remind me of home.

[@uthairomania9490]

Hi Stephanie, I LOVE your channel particularly this one because red velvet cupcakes are my favorite. Im a beginner at baking and I just love how you always clarify the measurements of the ingredients to make your recipe easy to follow. Thank you so much :)

[@debapriya2011]

Dear Stefanie, You are my inspiration in baking. I had no knowledge about cake baking, but your wonderful website taught me how to start from the scratch. It's really wonderful, the way you show all the minute details involved in a baking procedure. I've learned a lot from you, and hope to do the same in future. I just want to say you a big thanks for making my dream (of baking a perfect cake) true.

[@ArnieMarieDiocampo]

[@sarafakhond8201]

I've been watching your channel since I was 15. I'm 22 now and all that I've learned about baking, your contribution to that is 90%. This is my go to recipe for red velvet cupcakes and it always turns out perfect.

[@aliciaelliott2458]

I tried this recipe today and it came out just like yours. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!!

[@aru8915]

These cupcakes came out just perfect. 3These little red cupcakes had a crunchy crust nd were so moist,smooth and soft inside. Thank you soo much stephanie. I tried baking dese fr d first time nd it just made my day. I used 1/2 cup plain milk with 1/2 tbsp of vinegar fr buttermilk. And dis substitute works. :D

[@juliaboldt612]

I just tried them, they are so good. For those, who watch from Germany like me: the cake flour is our normal flour (type 405). Btw, thank you for the great recipe!

[@sakusanrio]

Danke omg

[@snava2106]

Julia Boldt Danke! :)

[@lipo9927]

[@jasmindecastro3998]

If I try recipes fr others I always compare it with Stephanie’s hers are the best . It’s like old grandma cooking 😀

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you could use coffee powder.

[@gabbymariano6659]

I've been using this recipe ever since you posted this video! And it's been a year since I last baked some red velvet cupcakes. I totally forgot how to bake these cupcakes, so I went back to your channel! Still love the recipe!

[@AnayaWillies]

Stephanie, I just want to thank you for all the wonderful recipes that you share with the YT community! I just made this cupcakes and my family told me that they were the best that I have ever made, and all was because of you! Thank you so, so much! Greetings from Mexico!

[@shubh9609]

Thanks a lot for such a lovely recipe maam :) i tried it yesterday and it turned out to be the most amazing cake i have baked. Everyone loved the soft moist cake and delicious frosting. Wish i cud send u the pics. Thank you so much :)

[@xxxnini]

Omg thank u so much! I made this last night and this morning and fortunately it came out perfect! Its my first time ever baking cupcakes wahh im so happy cause everyone enjoyed it! ☺️👍👍

[@Leena79]

Thank you for a great demonstration! I' ve never made cupcakes before but i tried these and they came out perfect, even the frosting. Also a huge thank you for the metric conversions - they saved me a lot of time :).

[@joyofbaking]

I've never actually tried that. But you could try replacing some of the flour with unsweetened cocoa powder.

[@2000lintay]

red velvet cupcakes and nutella frosting is the best!Just pipe out nutella onto the cupcakes after they have cooled,I swear they are the most amazing red velvet cupcakes twist!

[@sharonnil582]

Thank you for taking time out & putting up the demo for these. I'm addicted to anything Red Velvet. Discovered you can make Red Velvet hot chocolate drinks using the cake mix. Pink velvet drink by using white chocolate sauce. When it comes to Red Velvet the brain is your only limitation. One thing though if I could bother someone for an answer what is half & half mean? I think I have an idea but I would rather know for sure. TIM, Happy cooking/Baking & enjoy eating water you have made. xxx

[@joyofbaking]

+Sharon Nil It is a mixture of half milk and half cream.

[@sharonnil582]

Thank you for responding.

[@sabanousheen4012]

+Joy of Baking can we use red colour powder instead

This is the best red velvet i have ever made ! ive stuck to this recipe for the cake for ages ! Even the ones in the bakery are not as nice ! not bragging ! Crumbly texture, soft and moist.

[@loverboyj1]

[@jodiechan2699]

made these yesterday!! turned out to be very delicious and moist in texture! Thanks joyofbaking!!! I forgot to buy double cream for the frosting and used some milk instead to loosen the cream cheese frosting. Still works perfectly! Thanks:)

[@normagates1562]

[@lornaescobin8712]

Hi ms. Jaworski! Can i use canola/veg oil instead of butter? i want it to become soft and moist...pls. response, thanks! :)

[@elnymiel]

lorna escobin definitely you can.. Or better yet combined both butter and oil.

[@rupinderkaurchahal2902]

Tried her vanilla cupcakes.. believe that it's most perfect recipe I ever found.. my daughter loved it.. never searching for any other site of baking.. kindly introduce some gluten free baking recipes as well.. all your efforts are highly appreciated 👍.. tq.. joy of baking❤❤

[@berryposh]

Hi Stephanie. Great looking red velvet you have. May I ask if I can use regular milk to buttermilk? If not, what will be it's substitute? looking forward to your reply. Thanks! :)

[@joyofbaking]

You can make your own by stirring 1/2 tablespoon of white distilled vinegar, cider vinegar, or lemon juice into 1/2 cup (120 ml) of milk. Just let this mixture stand 5 to 10 minutes before using.

[@CHREED1101]

I made these for my family and it was a winner it was sooo YUM and i was so proud of myself. Thank you for this great recipe xx

[@snava2106]

That looks so good! I'm going to try this tomorrow. Much greetings from Germany (Berlin). :)

[@almasabales4125]

I just made today. Adding vinegar to the mixture makes reallyand a big ddifference. Its is more fluffy and cakey. Kids just loved it!

[@urvashigupta6288]

Hi Stephanie! I'm a huge fan of your recipes, whenever I try them they always turn out amazing! I tried the Red Velvet, the taste was absolutely delicious, one problem though. While they were baking, initially they had risen but after 10-15 minutes they sunk and flattened out, any idea why that happened? Yours look gorgeous btw! Absolutely spot on!

[@joyofbaking]

Urvashi Gupta It could be that your oven is running too cool. You could buy a free standing oven thermometer to double check your oven's calibration.

[@urvashigupta6288]

Joy of Baking I couldn't find one of those in my local market. Is there any other way of solving the problem? I tend to bake at 200C though.

[@tassaditchabbi9048]

jana ihab any type of cream cheese

[@safajaved4987]

[@pavleen3591]

[@balaniz1975]

I just made this now and my kids love, love, love it.... It's not to sugary it's perfect thanks so much.

[@ashleycolon6168]

wich cocoa powder do you use. can it be the hersheys unsweetened?

[@joyofbaking]

+Yes that would be okay. My personal preference is Dutch processed. Ashley Colon

[@ashleycolon6168]

Okay, thank you very much miss.

[@safajaved4987]

yup thats better

[@nicoleamarilla4723]

Cake in a cup

[@psyurga]

Thanks for the best recipe ever. I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup per portion of cake batter. I have gotten praises from everyone! :D

[@ches04229]

hello, what can be an alternative to buttermilk? thanks!

[@joyofbaking]

Ches Mangibin You can make a good substitute for commercial buttermilk. Stir 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar into 1/2 cup (120 grams) milk. Let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes and it's ready to use.

[@ches04229]

Thank you so much. However, I was able to find a Powdered buttermilk. For 1/2 cup of water, how much do powder do you think I should add? Thank you! I will be making some tomorrow for the first time ☺

[@geefc9939]

+Joy of Baking follow up on this concern. Can I use powdered buttermilk instead of the regular one; and how do I use it as an alternative? Or is it better to make my own buttermilk substitute. Thanks. Hoping to hear from you.

[@cuppacake6751]

Grace Cabasal this is kinda late. You can make your own buttermilk substitute. For every 1 cup milk add 1 tbsp white distilled vinegar or lemon juice. mix and let it rest for 10 mins before using. It's normal for it to curdle. Hope that helps

[@glendm1046]

thank u ms.steph u are indeed a great help for someone like me...a starter and a dreamer of a small business.God bless and keep on uploading new recipes!

[@Moonchild_XO]

[@julierachels7799]

[@joyofbaking]

It gives a slight flavor and helps with the color.

[@Nursekelliwithani]

Another awesome recipe! Made for my husband for dad's day. My frosting tasted great but was on the runny side- just need some practice. Thanks!

[@rockiebleu]

I love using the cream cheese frosting recipe! It's the best type of frosting I ever used. Love your videos and recipes so much!

[@sangeetadialle1145]

They are looking so beautiful in these moulds😊.

[@JoyfulArtisticAdventures]

Thanks a lot Stephanie! I baked the Cupcakes yesterday n it turned out to be very good. The colour of the cake looks awesome! My daughter loved it. She likes the frosting. Which became too sweet. But no problems I can adjust that for the next baking. Bye!

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you could use a vanilla frosting and it would taste great.

[@xXwhitelotusXx]

Just made a batch of these. Cupcakes were simply divine ♥!! Perfect recipe♥Thank you!!

[@mayooshist]

Tried this last week and it turned out a big hit 👍 thanks for sharing !!

[@YODIDDLYO]

These look absolutely amazing, I will definitely try them! Especially appreciated the tip of adding cream to thicken the icing as I usually find it quite watery. Also, thank you for translating the cup measurements to grams/mls in your video. I'm English and don't understand cups so this saved me a lot of time looking up conversions :)

[@zionmary7870]

Am in love with cupcakes

[@mazza_razzza]

Here's my story. Over melted butter in the microwave. Added vinegar as an afterthought to batter. Somehow made 42 perfect mini cupcakes with simple icing. I did however weigh everything and used lots of LOVE as my grandkids are coming over this afternoon :)

[@MsScirocco19]

Your channel inspires me to bake.. And i am getting better at it every time! Thank you for sharing your recipes!

[@NobiAinhell]

Thank you Stephanie ^^ You're such an inspiring person.

[@joyofbaking]

Not sure where you live, but in the States our confectioners sugar contains a little cornstarch (corn flour). So if your powdered sugar doesn't contain cornstarch, I would add just a touch to your sugar as that will help with thickening.

[@joyofbaking]

When the cakes sink after baking, there can be a couple of reasons. The oven temperature could be too low. You could buy a free standing oven thermometer to double check your oven's calibration. Or it could be the batter was over mixed.

[@joshuaaajoness]

Joy of Baking your red velvet cupcakes was amazing

[@ophiuchus992]

I Love these cupcakes

[@aslammohamed4808]

Thanks for your wonderful recipes.

[@joyofbaking]

You could try whipping the cream separately to stiff peaks and then folding it into the cream cheese mixture. Adding gelatin to the frosting would help to keep it firm, although this frosting really does need to be refrigerated.

[@HamsterTinkerBell]

Ooooooooo this is great I could make this for Mother's Day! Thank you so much

[@johnnybajada8139]

I like your recipes and demonstration thanks

[@theredcakestudio7650]

By far the best recipe channel. Stephanie, you are absolutely amazing and your recipes rock. Everything I try comes out perfect and this is my go to place for all recipes. Still have to try a lot more your recipes. Xox

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you can do it by hand with a wire whisk. Although I would beat the heavy cream to stiff peaks separately, and then add it to the cream cheese mixture.

[@sclf]

I love your instruction it makes learning very easy for me as i am a disaster when it comes to preparation.

[@SineadxFay]

These would be perfect for my mam as she doesn't like sweet frostings and prefers cream. Thanks :)

[@aminamahboob1852]

you are like a goddess of baking !!!!

[@joyofbaking]

The flour measurement is correct. If the cupcakes cracked that is usually caused from the batter being over mixed, wrong type of flour or too much flour, or the oven temperature was too hot.

[@lilcutieepie]

It looks so good

[@Nina-tt1co]

Thank you so much for this recipe I love love love the icing I use it on the red velvet cake and banana cake as well, it tastes great! Best! cream cheese icing by far x
