As a Southern Boy, I grew up eating Grandma's Red Velvet Cake. Since then, nothing has ever quite lived up to that cake (or at least the cake that I remember eating). That all changed when I discovered The Cookie Jar. They have a red velvet cupcake that is AMAZING. REALLY! It's got a chocolately taste, is nice and red without looking like red polyester, and is topped by a fantastic cream cheese icing. I'm so hooked on the Red Velvet here that I have started ordering a few to pick up on the way home, and they even custom made me a Red Velvet birthday cake that was GORGEOUS and of course tasty too. I feel torn about letting the secret out, but they assure me that they'll always have Red Velvet cupcakes. Every day. What a relief!
