Red Velvet Cupcake

Have you ever eaten a red velvet cake before? is it suppose to be melts in the mouth texture? The recipe I've tried today is moist but taste bland to me if not of the cream cheese topping :P I'm actually more fascinated by the red hue colour of this mini cupcakes ^-* Maybe next round I will try out a recipe that uses butter & buttermilk which gives better flavour to the cake..
