Recently FoodSided spoke to Dixie D’Amelio as part of her partnership with Original Donut Shop. As part of the brand’s special holiday offering, the One-Step Red Velvet Latte K-cups, D’Amelio shared some insight on why she has fallen in love with this beverage, some favorite food memories and why she feels so deeply connected to her fans.

Since she lives in LA, D’Amelio admitted that sometimes it can be hard to get into the holiday mood. After growing up on the East Coast, she feels that there can be a little missing on the West coast especially when the weather doesn’t quite have that winter feel.

Specifically, D’Amelio said that the One-Step Red Velvet Latte K-Cups are “the only think putting me in the holiday mood right now.” While she may often prefer to stick to certain beverages, this colorful latte has become her go-to beverage.

The One-Step Red Velvet Latte is a little sweet yet totally satisfying. While the color is the first thing that people notice, it is the flavor that brings people back time and again. It might be best to stock up on this latte for the holidays.

When asked about the red-hued latte, D’Amelio admitted that she is one of those people who does judge food by its visual. Even though her house might be more muted in tone, she does appreciate in certain ways.

Beyond the color, the latte’s flavor is quite enticing. D’Amelio shared that she grew up with red velvet cake and it was her mom’s favorite. That flavor brings back all types of happy memories of her childhood.

While certain food and flavors can bring smiles so can a fashion. Since D’Amelio appreciates that feeling good often is paired with looking good, she created a special track suit inspired by the Original Donut Shop One-Step Red Velvet Latte. Through an online giveaway, several of her fans were able to win their own to pair with that colorful sipping.

D’Amelio shared that when she gets dressed in the morning, she often thinks about what she wants to convey. In her words, why not get dressed for eating and drinking. Comfy and cute, D’Amelio is really proud of the look. The colorful track suit is another example of food fashion that hits all the right notes.

Appreciating that fashion is a way for people to present themselves, D’Amelio said that it is important to represent yourself in a true way. Whether it is on a big stage or at home, that ability to be proud of who you are is important.

For D’Amelio, it is important to connect with her fans. As she shared, she appreciates all the messages and looks forward to seeing people as she goes on tour. In addition, she wants everyone to know that she reads all those messages and hears all the words that are said.
