Just curious...which recipe do you use for RV cupcakes? I hardly ever make cupcakes and someone requested them for this weekend. I usually use Martha Stewart's red velvet cake but I'm not sure how well that would convert into cupcakes. I know a lot of people use Cakeman's which I have tried once before.

Thanks,

Annie

I use the recipe from Georgetown Cupcakes. I use it for RV Cake and Cupcakes. It's the best recipe that I've found for it and it's gotten great reviews, especially from some of the little old ladies in my church and sinch I live in the South where RV is pretty much a staple I figure it must be a pretty good recipe.

This is the recipe I use and I get rave reviews whenever I do. It's great for both cupcakes and tiered cakes.

I used the RV recipe by crumbboss.com . It was the first rv cake I have ever made and it was awesome. Tried the wasc variation and, to me, it just wasn't nearly as good..

Sorry Annie, I haven't been on CC in about a week. I'm glad you pm'd me. I hope I got back in time. Let me know what recipe you made. Susan

Thanks so much everyone for your replies. Thanks again Susan. You know, looking at the MS recipe and Cakeman's, they are both nearly identical. The MS recipe has more cocoa and I think also a bit more baking soda and vinegar. But otherwise they are the same.

Thanks again everyone!

Normita,

I don't do square cakes so I am no help there. Do you use baking strips? You may want to lower the oven temperature and put the baking strips around the edge of the pan.
