My original idea was to use my mini cupcake pans, but the liners I bought were too small.

Aww, I was going to make red velvet cupcakes for my co-workers, too! I didn't get a chance though because I've been sick. I didn't think they'd appreciate a sick person making food for them. lol Yours look like they turned out great! Homemade icing, too? You're brave!
