I know, I know, I’ve been failing at keeping up with my red velvet cupcake report as of late, and I’m especially bummed that I never got to try the velvety treat at Cupcakes, which recently closed. I am still waiting on the L.A.-based Sprinkles to make an appearance, and have yet to try Swirlz, Molly’s, and Chaos Theory Cakes. I did notice that Starbucks just launched a red velvet I have yet to try, and um, has anyone else noticed the red velvet whoopie pie at Fox & Obel? I gave those a try a while back, and I have to say I actually prefer Fox & Obel’s actual red velvet cupcake over the ultra-sweet and dense whoopie pie incarnation. However, it does get points for novelty. Anyone spot any other RVCs I should know about?

It beckons to me but I have yet to try the red velvet at Starbucks.
