>You are now aware that Red Velvet cake is supposed to be red because of the reaction of non-alkaline cocoa powder with vinegar and buttermilk
>Not because you cheated and dumped a half gallon of red food coloring into the batter
I thought it was red because you add beet juice to it for moisture
I already knew this you pedantic faggot, delete your thread, give your phone to a homeless guy and kill you're are selve

Empirically, it is a dense chocolate cake with either boiled cream or cream cheese icing.

For me, it's the mac and mustard combo
Most cakes are better with dutched cocoa though, leave the natural stuff for things like ganache or mousse where it can really shine. Can't get a really brilliant red that people expect without coloring either

True, it's more of a brick red when done right. But it also doesn't stain your teeth.
You are now breathing manually
That's a myth. Try it, it goes rusty brown at best
Red velvet cake was just a ploy during the great depression to sell more food coloring since there was no demand for it at the time and the companies needed money.
