The Red velvet is one of the best-known international pies; It is a tart of American origin that is distinguished by the peculiar red color of its mass and its white filling, which can be cream, butter or cream cheese. As always, today I want to propose a different version: these are red velvet style cupcakes, but pink (so pink velvet) and prepared with super healthy ingredients. Let’s see what you think.
