Omg you’ve just got a new subscriber in me after 30 seconds of that red velvet cake vid! It’s my FAVORITE cake ever and I haven’t eaten it in a few years because my family went completely dye free with my middle child’s severe ADHD diagnosis! This is so exciting!!❤
I also hate when folks act like it's traditionally a chocolate cake, when tradition calls for so little cocoa powder. Nowadays, folks add way more cocoa. But that's not my jam 😐
Use beetroot purée or beetroot juice. Doesn’t alter the flavour but natural and healthy. Edit - a few below comments have said it does alter the flavour. I don’t notice it, but perhaps am just used to it. Either way, beetroot in cake does go well. Also, some have suggested beetroot powder too which I’ll give a try. Thank you!
My grandma was born in the late 1930s and this is her favorite cake. Her family was poor, and this cake is like a chocolate cake, but you can use less chocolate, so it was more affordable. She doesn't care about the red food coloring, which is classic for her generation. She is still alive and almost 90.
I once did a research essay on red velvet cake-all of this is really accurate!! But because this is knowledge I never get to use, I want to add a bit; The “velvet” descriptor comes from how cakes before the Victorian era were made with unrefined flour, and were therefore rough and lumpy. Most cakes made with the newer, more processed ingredients of the Victorian era were called velvet, and red velvet sticks because it is essentially an evolution of Red Devil’s food cake, a rougher, older cake, which was a variant on the traditional devil’s food cake in that it contained buttermilk and so was red. Red Devil’s food cake evolved into one of the newer, “velvet” cakes and eventually had its natural red hue strengthened with food coloring. The first recorded instance of red food coloring being added to one of these cakes is in 1960, as one Mrs. Cragle published in the Denton-Record Chronicle of Texas. This recipe spread all over the country in the summer of 1960, and remained as kind of an underground hit until steel magnolias and other events which heightened it’s popularity in the 80’s, and into the 2000s and present day.
I’ll comment down here so anytime someone likes it I’ll be reminded about this magnificent fact ❤ One of the best food history tidbits I’ve ever read, thank you for sharing!
I remember in the 80s, when as a kid, visiting my mom and grandmother in Lubbock TX, going to.... Macy's I think. The upstairs dining room and having red velvet cake for the first time. I was told it was from the original recipe, but no idea if that's true. But it's why I still think of it as my favorite type of cake.
finally someone who acknowledges that it DOES add taste 😭 its such a nice subtle sweet earthy flavor but everytime i see people talk abt it they always say it "doesnt alter the flavor" when it reality it makes it taste even better!
@@sarkaztik3228: Test it before you write-off this usage as a waste of time. Molasses tastes horrible by itself, but greatly improves various things that it's added to. Many foods that we consider horrible are actually just over-used. Do beware that pickled beets probably won't be a good match though.
@@KevinRAAMAAAGEthe name means nothing. It’s ultimately the same thing as what nature uses for pigments, just without having to use an ingredient as an intermediary.

There’s so many veggies and fruit out there that can color it. Just really gotta take the time to find one that works best for whatever you want to color. Besides, our ancestors used different vegetation to make dyes anyway

I LOVE red velvet but the food dye/color isnt what matters... its the TASTE! And good cream cheese frosting...

I have ALWAYS loved chocolate AND cake, I am a sweet tooth. But chocolate cake and chocolate ice cream for me are just meh-awful. But red velvet cake, it is my favourite. Tbf my mum made cocoa cupcakes when i was young and they were lovely but its just too heavy or dry or bitter or idk it just nearly always flops for me, but red velvet reigns supreme
See though there is an difference in taste and it makes me go crazy in how people saying that it tastes better because the red food coloring is making taste different. Like no they have different ingredients and it's not even the same cocoa used in red velvet and chocolate.

Yeah I agree. I have a friend who is severely allergic to red 40. She has been hospitalized by it several times because red is so easily found in nature that it’s hard to tell what has it in there sometimes without having labels available on everything. Scary stuff.
Idc how much people say it's no different than chocolate cake, it is better, almost always it is more moist, or flavorful, I love it
I have ALWAYS loved chocolate AND cake, I am a sweet tooth. But chocolate cake and chocolate ice cream for me are just meh-awful. But red velvet cake, it is my favourite.
Tbf my mum made cocoa cupcakes when i was young and they were lovely but its just too heavy or dry or bitter or idk it just nearly always flops for me, but red velvet reigns supreme
See though there is an difference in taste and it makes me go crazy in how people saying that it tastes better because the red food coloring is making taste different. Like no they have different ingredients and it's not even the same cocoa used in red velvet and chocolate.
@@lizzyrank5405 its the difference of a cake being chocolate and a cake using chocolate
Red wine especially one that pairs well with chocolate notes
Yes I enjoy red velvet cake
I honestly love anything that has to do with velvet lol
I love how we found out how they do it at the end of the video
I love red velvet cake every year for my birthday a get a cake that's red velvet
I don’t care if it has food coloring or none it will always be my favorite
Beets, the answer is beets. If you want a pinkier colir and a floral hint, a little hibiscus.
