ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ม.ค. 2022
- A light chocolate cake with lots of addictive cream cheese frosting and a crown of buttercream roses. This cake is moist but so light and fluffy, it really is the perfect match for all that delicious frosting! You can make this without any food coloring and it will be a light tan color, not quite red, but it will be eaten just as quickly!

I was confused, the amount of buttermilk and sugar was wrong.Can you explain the right amount for me?thank you.
@@farnazd9267 sugar one hand half cup . He add two by mistake.
@@annulife2973 for Butter milk, it was the wrong amount. Do you know how much Buttermilk is?
That my favourite cake ever. Thank to that velvelt cake I got confidence to bake.;)
I love you preppy kichen. You have taught me a lot in terms of baking. I love watching your videos. Thank you for everything
I love that you are never afraid to show us mistakes. Some bakers always show only their best on camera, it makes those that can not match them feel unworthy.
Well said 👍
Only time I really learn how to do it properly is messing it up at least once 🤣
I love that you are never afraid to show us mistakes some bakers always show only their best on camera it makes those that can not
I was about to say that
Definitely. The authenticity of reality when you make things, especially for the first time, it doesn’t always work. I love his charisma as well.

I like that you're not afraid to show your mistakes in your videos. Thats how cooking truly is. No one is perfect in the kitchen 100% of the time. Great job with the cake!
I love the way you are presenting this and not being afraid to show the mistakes. You’re my favourite baker since I watched one of your videos and if I want a recipe I type “preppy kitchen …..” because I know your recipes always work ☺️
I made this for Christmas. My family loves red velvet cake and my mom says this was the best cake she ever had. Just the right amount of sweetness.
Thank you John! I had to deny myself a bigger piece lol
I love love love how you keep the outtakes or bloopers in your video. other recipe videos are so clean and pristine and I'm just like...HOW. Your videos are so fun to watch and i enjoy your recipes very much. thanks for sharing!!!
This is so funny, I was just planning on making red velvet cake and I follow a lot of your recipes and here is a brand new red velvet cake video! I will definitely be trying this recipe, thanks John!!
This was the best by far red velvet cake recipe I've ever made. Threw out my old recipe... this one was great
This is a family favorite! We love it with the more traditional cooked flour frosting. There was a woman in my home town who was famous for her red velvet cake. My mother had her make 2 sheet cakes for after my wedding dance. When she went put out the cakes, only one was there....we never did find out who took (stole) the other red velvet...her cakes were that good! Thanks for the video, the cake is beautiful!
I ALWAYS USE THE ORIGINAL WALDORF COOKED FLOUR FROSTING YUM YUM 😋
MUCH BETTER THAN CREAM CHEESE IMO
MILK FLOUR BUTTER SUGAR VANILLA
I really came here to see who else makes it with the traditional "ermine" cooked frosting. Thank you!!
u need to get that recipe
That's how I make mine also. The Red Waldorf Cake with ermine frosting. It's less sweet and more creamy.
I love watching you bake. Red velvet cake preperation would've been challenging but you make it look so easy.
I cannot believe this video came out today!!! Tomorrow a dear sweet young lady is turning 20 years old and this is the PERFECT cake for her. I already got the decorations (little pink hearts with sparkly gold sprinkles).
I made this yesterday for my daughter in law's birthday after reviewing multiple recipes for red velvet cake. Your's seemed most likely to be successful... It was! She loved it! Probably the most tender, delicate cake I've ever made. My husband, not a frosting fan, thought it was delicious and frosting was perfect. I did two 9-inch layers. Baking time in my oven was a little more than 20 minutes as a result. Even though layers weren't terribly domed, I trimmed the tops just a bit. I salvaged and crumbled up those discards for the decoration around the bottom edge of the frosted cake. I didn't bake a separate cupcake. All said, the cake turned out very impressive in looks and taste. 😊 Thank you! BTW, my daughter in law loves your channel too!
Red velvet cake is my daughter's favorite. I "have" to make it every year for her birthday. This by far looks to be the perfect cake!!
I love red velvet also. Had never heard or it until I was in high school and a family friend would make it for special occasions. She always made it super red so for me that nostalgic deep red seems to make it taste better😀. I also like the oil based version, it's super moist.
My mom said he talks alot 😂😂 but when i prepared the recipe and she tested it she said it was worth it
I absolutely love how you make it look effortless and fun. It encourages me to make your recipes. 🤗 thank you!
I have been learning to bake using your videos over the last few months. Thank you so much. I am really enjoying it!
I am from India. I prepared this cake yesterday on my son's birthday. It turned out so well. A BIG thanks to you. 😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you, historian / chemist / baker John! It's always so nice to hear how and why the recipes are done a certain way.
Not only do I enjoy watching your videos on repeat 😍, but every recipe of yours that I've tried also became a family favorite in our household. Thanks for all the joy you bring 💞
I am so happy I attempted this cake! I have a small oven & it was a huge hit! Thank you! Your recipes are so fun to follow! ❤️❤️❤️
Nicely done. Our family recipe has hint of cherry flavor and hint of almond flavor added to the cake as well and does a butter/béchamel/sugar frosting. It is the best cake ever IMO. I find the traditional cream cheese frosting over shadows the amazing light cake and subtle flavors.
This is my new favorite cake of all time! It's delicious it's moist it's THE BEST RED VELVET CAKE !! I made this for my guests and they were inlove!
My gfs favorite cake is red velvet i promised her I would make one and I know your recipes never fail me ! Thank you so much! sending love to you and your family 🥺🫶🏽🩷
This has to be my favorite recipe of yours. Red velvet cake is SO delicious 😋
I remember getting notification when he posted this and thinking to myself, “Well, I’ll have to try this one!”
I did, and this is THE BEST cake I’ve ever made. It turned out better all the other red velvets I’ve made.
|•This man is the reason I am not as intimidated about baking as I used to be.•|
Thank you, John. Lots of love from India.
I saw this on all your videos idc if it's you making chocolate milk we want all the videos and all the tips and tricks. Your videos make everyone better in the kitchen and we love it
Hey! I made this cake today! And the texture and taste was heavenly!!
The cake itself was so moist and soft that my family members had it all even before covering it with frosting 🤦🏻♀️
Dis you use the buttercream room temperature o is cold?
@@myriamnunez4011 should always be room temperature
YES ! Please make a video on cake decorating tips 🥰 Thank you for uploading this video looks delicious
I made a 2 tier 9 inch cake. Used 1 cup less powdered sugar in the frosting though. The whole thing came out amazing. The tips you share and following the video step by step made it so simple and easy.
Hi! Did you bake them same temperature and time? 350 for 35 min? Thanks ❣️
Delicious recipe! My whole family loved it. I did it for my sons and I's birthday and everyone loved it
I love how real your channel is. I check for your videos every morning before i start my day. Lots of Love in South Africa
I love all your recipes, you’re a wonderful baker and very upbeat and funny. I have been struggling to find a professional tutorial for fondant for three layered cakes or tiered cakes so that might be an idea you could try.
My mouth is definitely watering over this one! Love everything you make… I just made your chocolate chip cake to rave reviews. Love all your videos and your whole vibe. Thank you!!
I made this cake for my sons Birthday and it was AMAZING! I even learned how to make buttermilk. 😋Thank you!
No matter how long the video is .or how much he speak...I just never get bored. U share so informative and cute videos..preppy. love u💕
I've been getting into baking cakes lately and I'd LOVE a video on cake decorating tips. I can't seem to get the frosting to be completely smooth on the sides. I've done your other red velvet cake and it was amazing, I just wish I used more food coloring since mine came out brownish pink too. I'm going to do this cake as well, I love that it uses butter instead of oil.
Hello Preppy. I actually made this cake and it turned out wonderfully... Only change is I had to add extra eggs as our eggs here in Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 are very small and I noticed your mixture was more runny than mine. I thought I'd have gotten a pink velvet, but I also realised that with Wilton's gel food coloring, the color darkens when baked. Two thumbs up!!
Thank you so much for this recipe. I’m going to try to make this for my daughter’s birthday in a few weeks. I love that you show your mistakes as well. It makes me feel better knowing that the best Chefs make mistakes. I’d love to see a cake decorating video. ♥️🎂
👍
Your one of the most real people! Like nothing fake about you and that is so amazing!
Hey John, I just wanted to let you know that there might’ve been a slight mix up in your recipe with ingredients listed, you mentioned here that you used 150 grams of sugar and in the online recipe it says 300, for anyone reading this i believe 150 grams is the correct amount, anything more than that would make the creaming very difficult (i did this twice because of the mix up) so i would say please correct this information🙏
Nope. I did it many times. It should be 300g.
Mine is in the oven now with 300g sugar. I decided to watch the video again and noticed he said 150g. ( I followed the written recipe). Fingers crossed.
Great video! Two things: I love the cake strips also, you gave me the idea a few years ago and it was a huge game changer! Also, I like the pastry cream type frosting that some consider the original red velvet cake frosting, it is amazing also, instead of cream cheese frosting!
That frosting is called ermine icing which is actually a Cooked buttercream.
Where do you purchase the cake strips and what do they do again??
I love all of your matching kitchen tools. So satisfying 😊
I so appreciate that you work out the perfect recipe. Love all your recipes. Thanks for sharing.
I just did this recipe for some cupcakes! It’s really good, the recipe was enough to make 35 cupcakes of 30grs each. I also added chocolate chips for that extra chocolate flavor 🤤 and they turned out peeeeerfect ! Thank you preppy chef ☺️☺️☺️☺️
No it’s not. It’s failed. Can’t do cupcakes at all!! Different textures. It’s really less when you put only 30grm. Dry and strong and small like cookies. I thought using a new cooking method would work as you told. But, I had to throw away all. 👎🏻
Red velvet is my absolute favorite dessert! But it never tastes quite right when I try to make it myself... Maybe with this recipe I'll finally be able to make one that's as good as the ones you buy!!
i always watch your videos on my breaks at work because they calm me down. thank you for what you do!!
I made this cake yesterday amd it was soooo goood, deliciuos and so soft🍰. I made this cake for my fathers birthday and everyone loved my cake😋
I’ve tried many of your recipes. They always come out so good! Can’t wait to try this one 🥰
SOO Glad you like them!
They are always the best of the best!
Thank you for showing us how to make this cake.
Jesus is coming back soon so we must confess our sins and turn from our wicked ways and accept the Gospel of Jesus Christ before it is too late. Hell is for all eternity and their is no escape. Accept the love of Jesus who saved us from going into the pit. Accept Jesus love today as your Lord and personal saviour
Amazing cake! I tried a few others, and nothing compares to yours!
I wondered when I saw the thumbnail, "didn't John already do this?!" Nope. That was me, making this cake last year and the year before for my husband's birthday. Can confirm: it's delicious!
I've also made the historic version complete with ermine frosting. It was good too, but tbh, everything needs more chocolate. So no, John. It wasn't too chocolatey at all!
Is Ernie frosting better than cream cheese frosting?
Omg best red velvet cake ever. I halved the ingredients and made the most divine bento ❤️❤️
John you read my mind. My birthday is just around the corner and I thought of making a red velvet cake. As I clicked on TH-cam there you were with this lovely cake.
The way he just walked out of the kitchen:
“Oh no I forgot something!”
Made me laugh!
You never cease to amaze me with your recipes, John! Keep up the good work!
Try gel colour. Also, ermine frosting is the classic pairing with this cake. Fun video though, I always enjoy watching! Regarding the creamed cheese frosting, there is a technique in the beating process that can make it the most light and fluffy almost like italian buttercream and super easy to work with. It takes a while but totally worth it.
I love that you showed the "mistake" with the first not-red-enough batch. It would have been really easy to just cut to the remade cakes, but showing that you redid it really helps other amateur bakers to know that mistakes are normal and ok, and even the best bakers mess up sometimes!
Red velvet cake is my absolute favourite.
I tried many recipes but it never tasted like a perfect red velvet.
Your recipe is so freaking amazing, I got compliments like it's better than the bakery I have made it thrice in the last month ❤❤❤

Np man
This was the goofiest vid I've seen so far... You're so adorable. I'm making your cream cheese frosting this weekend! Ilysm.
You make it look so easy!!! I love red velvet cake!!! Thank you for sharing this recipe with us!!! I will definitely be trying this recipe!!! God bless!!!
I've baked the red velvet cake yesterday following your recipe and it turned out to be super moist and velvety😍🤤.Thank you so much for sharing your delicious recipes with us😊
This looks very yummy 😋 😍 👌
I made this recipe for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was an absolute hit! It was such a beautiful, moist cake and everyone loved it. I think the only thing I’d do differently next time I make this is add more food colouring. I added about two tablespoons but i didn’t use gel food colouring so I think that had an impact?
Anyway, thank you for this absolutely wonderful recipe. Your recipes are my go to for cakes and bakes and they’re always a crowd pleaser.
Your such an inspiration to me, watching you encouraged me to get out there and do it. Thank you for always being you love your vibes always
This looks Amazing 🤩 and your personality always comes through - thanks
Thank you so much 🤗
The original frosting for Red Velvet cake isn’t a cream cheese based frosting - it’s milk and flour briefly cooked til thick then refrigerate til cold - then comes the butter, salt and vanilla. And I strongly recommend using a high power stand mixer because this frosting breaks then comes back together after several mins .
Oh and for the red food colouring, use 2 1oz bottles of food colouring not 1 2oz bottle and yes there is a major diff in the outcome. The 1oz bottles always makes a deep DEEP rich dark red crumb whereas the 2oz bottle generally makes a dark pink to light red .
Is that the frosting called Ermine frosting ?🤔 I've heard that one is made with cooked flour🤷.
🤓
@@lupitafonseca yes Ermine frosting is the traditional frosting for red velvet cake!
What's the difference taste wise between the 2 types of icing?
Anyone who says cream cheese frosting isn't traditional for red velvet cake is obviously not Southern!!
I just love watching your videos. u make it so much fun and you clearly are just like one of us when you show your goofy funny side.
luv u John ❤️ keep up the good work!
I had to use this recipe after watching it several times and it really turns out perfect, very delicious. You just gained another follower
Let’s see a comparison with the original cake!
i literally just used this recipe and video to make my first cake, i dont know where i went wrong but my icing is soo runny, made a huge mess in the kitchen and got a word or two from mum, but tasted too good, i ate the dough mix, someone said ill get food poisoning, i feel fine now, waiting for the cake to come out of the fridge to eat so ill tell you if i die, i made a cupcake too but didnt crumble it up. ended up eating it, also mine looks brown. not red. i used a whole tube of red gel
If you are from the U.K and you used Philadelphia then you'd be be better off using Cupcake Jemmas recipe for cream cheese icing, as for red colouring a concentrated gel colouring is best or sugar flair colour paste you can order from Amazon or eBay.
You rock, dude! All of your videos are awesome. Can't wait to give this one a try; Thanks for the recipe!
I am so thankful for the science tips you gave along the way! Im a science geek/educator. Life is so much better when we understand the WHY. Lol! I started making homemade bread a few months ago. Before that time I didn’t know anything abt diff types of flour, never mind, what a gluten network was. 😂 I’m 42 yrs old, have been baking since childhood & never understood WHY baking ingredients were combined or creamed together in a certain order & in different ways, until today, thanks to you! Hallelujah! Baking is actually making some sort of sense to me now. I never realized until your video why it would be important to combine flour at the very end! The biggest lightbulb went off when I heard you say that now thatI ama bread maker! Of course, we don’t want to activate the gluten! 🤣 Yes, yes, yes! Also love your tips about acidic ingredients, and low & slow tip abt frosting. You’re awesome! I am definitely watching more of your videos! Thank you much! 💕🙏🏼🤩
Definitely going to make this next week for valentine's day, in the shape of a heart, aaaaah so excited!!
I love how authentic you are and keeping it real!!
Love your recipes 😍😍😍 btw, in the video you mention 1 1/2cups sugar/150g but on your blog it says 300g. Assuming 300 is the correct mesurement ?! Just a friendly FYI☺️
YES! Of course we need a new cake decorating video 😍
"A little kiss of chocolate" Amazing! Such a pleasure to watch your videos!
Thank you for showing or telling us the ingredients in Grams and litres. It helps a lot.
I’ve been subscribed for quite a while, but I have never actually tried any of your recipes until yesterday. Everything you makes looks like absolute perfection, but I’m such a terrible baker. I tried your Devil’s Food Cake recipe with chocolate buttercream, and oh my goodness! It was the best chocolate cake I’ve ever had! I wanted to tag you in a picture of the cake I made on Instagram, but I was too embarrassed. It genuinely is the ugliest cake I have ever seen. What’s worse is that I made it for my partner’s grandma’s 80th birthday. I felt awful, but no one cared because it tasted sooooo good! My partner’s favorite cake is red velvet, so I’m going to use this recipe for his birthday next month. I can’t wait!
red velvet cake is my favourite cake and i've never made it before, my exams just ended and i've been wanting to bake for so long, i'll definitely will be making this in a few days
One of the sweetest bakers!
Would LOVE a video on cake decorating tips! Yes, please! 😀
I hv been waiting to make red velvet since years now .. finally got the whole motivation .. it’s my friend bday this weekend .. so planning to give a try ..
fingers crossed
It’s gonna be my first cake with the frosting as usually I make plain cakes without any toppings
This cake looks amazing - thank you John
It looks wonderfully delicious! I love your style of presenting, so much fun to watch. The family recipe I have always used calls for Wesson oil, so its interesting to see your recipe with no oil. I will try it. I love how you decorated the cake.
Perfect recipe! I don't want too much red food coloring. I think it's great idea to have a more red coloring for the decoration!
My Mom would bake this often since it’s my favorite. I wish I had her recipe. Since I don’t, I’ll have to try yours.
My mom always buy plastic spatula scraper thingys and some one gave us some silicon ones and I fell in love with them there so much easier to use
Thank you for the recipe! The cake looks delicious!
I was just looking for a red velvet recipe yesterday!!! I will look no further 😌
Making this today would be great for Valentines! Thank you thank you
I love all your recipes! This is definitely a must try too.
the most relaxing baking channel on TH-cam. I don't bake but I always watch your videos for emotional support
Omg its like your a mind reader really needed this thanks for yet again another wonderful recpie
Just made your shrimp Alfredo for my grandparents, they just left and now I’m watching this before I start cleaning :)
I tried literally 4 recipes of red velvet cake this week, I have an especial request for this cake, and not even one of those worked, and today I decided to try this one because of the 5 star calification in your website, and ta daaa, it worked really well, I had to to make a couple of little adjustments because I live in a high altitud City but it is a great recipe and delicious. Thank you 😅
Yesterday i made this cake . It turned out so soft and yumm . I didn’t get butter milk , i used normal low fat with lemon . It turns out so soft and yumm
Yes!!! Cake decorating video please!! Love your videos!! It’s like I’m cooking with my BFF
Love your sense of humor! Love the recipes too!
It's my sister's birthday this month and she loves everything red velvet! I need to make this her birthday cake 🎂😊🌷
