It is a carrier, right? Does it have a cover? That's great because that's what I was thinking if I made them...how will I carry them without messing them up.

Thank you! I used a decorating bag (from ac moore) and I bought wilton tip 1M. Cut the tip of the decorating bag, stick the tip at the bottom and fill the bag with icing. Then follow the directions here:

Oh and the holder is from michaels / ac moore, I think both places have them and I think BBB might have it too.

Oh YUMMMMMM! They look great.

My wedding cake was red velvet! YUmmmmyyyy.

Great job Jess.

I want some.

Yum! I didn't even know that Duncan Heines made a mix for that! I love the Sprinkles red velvet mix but it's expensive. I made a Paula Deen recipe for a friend that was amazing.

oh yea? Would you mind posting or FMing me the recipe? Duncan Hines only has the red velvet mix around the holidays so I have to go stock up! The only place I've been able to find it is at target. What is the sprinkles red velvet mix?
