I love Valentine’s Day! This is one of my favorite recipes. Only because I can use Rose pedals and make the cupcakes look pretty as well as tasty! I think you will too! This recipe is SO awesome! I use this for any kind of cupcake I am making. Just moist and delicious to perfection! Hope you like it and your Valentine’s too! Ingredients: 1 Cup sugar ½ cup unsalted, butter softened 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla 13/4 cup all purpose flour ½ tsp baking soda ¼ tsp baking powder 1/8 cup crushed Rose Petals ¼ tsp salt ½ cup sour cream or yogurt ½ cup blood orange sparkling juice Beet Root Powder Pink Mica Directions:

In a bowl or mixer, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl whisk sour cream, sparkling juice, and beet powder to the color you want.
Add slowly the cream mixture and flour mixture into sugar and eggs. (This is the time if you want to add more beet powder to get the color you want)
