No. 6: Chocolate Velvet

I was scanning the shelves to find new flavors and spotted the Chocolate Velvet.  The word "velvet" alone was enough to get me to try it.  It's all dark and I wasn't quite sure what I was getting.  But since I love red velvet cake, it couldn't be that bad, right?

When I peeled back the wrapper, I instantly had an "ah" moment and it all made sense.  Now, the classic cream cheese frosting is just as essential to a red velvet cake as the cake itself.  But this cupcake takes a twist and caters to the chocoholics who just can't go without their cocoa fix.

This is a red velvet cake topped with chocolate buttercream frosting & sprinkled with red velvet cake crumbs.  It's actually a nice combination and I liked it quite a bit.  Sure, the fact that it's red velvet helped, but  I didn't hate Crumbs for tinkering with the classic red velvet.
