Red Velvet

Red velvet cake is a cake with either a dark red, bright red or red-brown color. It's traditionally prepared as a layer cake topped with cream cheese or cooked roux icing. The reddish color is achieved by adding red food coloring or beetroot. Originally red velvet cake is from United States. Common ingredients include buttermilk, butter, flour, sugar, vanilla, eggs and cocoa for the cake. The amount of cocoa used varies in different recipes. For frosting, cream cheese and buttercream are most commonly used.

Yesterday, I made red velvet cup cake as a sample to a potential customer who plan to open her own café soon….wish me luck!
