Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Swiss Meringue Buttercream

I am very pleased with my latest trial of red velvet cupcakes.  The colour is as red as it should be, thanks to food colouring liquid (not gel paste - I guess that's only for decorating, not for baking).  The icing is sublime, as well!
