I almost forgot to tell you that Chaka and I visited The Flying Cupcake Bakery during our anniversary trip to Indianapolis. It was very nice. The decor reminded me of Holly Hobby's cottage (if she had one). Lots of pink and floral prints. The bakery had a nice amount of seating. If I remember correctly, they had about 4-5 tables. We arrived in the late afternoon so there were only a few cupcake varieties to choose from. Chaka and I each tried one and took 4 back to Chaka's mom and the kids. I went for the Red Velvet Elvis- a red velvet cake with chocolate chips and cream cheese frosting b/c I still don't understand the obsession that people have with Red Velvet cake or cupcakes. Perhaps it is b/c I am not from the south and my grandma never baked it. All in all the cupcake was good but I still don't understand Red Velvet cake. I will have my interpretation of Red Velvet on my menu. Ironically, the most asked question that I get when I tell people that I am opening a cupcake bakery is, "Are you going to have Red Velvet?" I guess that I have to please the masses in order to succeed.
Have a fabulous night.

That is EXACTLY what people ask me first too!! I don't get it either. I added red to my chocolate and am topping it with almond buttercream instead. YUM! It actually has a TASTE.
Almond buttercream sounds yummy!
