Why do we LOVE red velvet cake so much? Because it's vanilla cake made with cocoa powder and food coloring! The ultimate bait and switch.
Red velvet cupcakes or cakes taste like delicious bites of very mild cocoa with a slightly tart edge. The vinegar and buttermilk bring some acid to the batter, adding a bit of tanginess that balances out the sweet cream cheese frosting. The crumb of the cake is very fine, soft and smooth - hence the "velvet."
So add our ombre 3D sugars as a garnish to give this southern delicacy a modern edge.
Red Velvet Recipe
3 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs, room temp & separated
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
red food coloring, liquid or gel
1 cup room temperature buttermilk
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease pans or use parchment
2. Whisk the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt together in a large bowl
3. In a separate bowl, mix butter and sugar together on medium-high speed until combined (~ 1 min). Add oil, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and vinegar and beat on high (~2 min)
4. With mixer on low speed, add dry ingredients in 2-3 additions alternating with the buttermilk. Add your desired amount of food coloring just until combined (~1-2 tsp gel). Beat the 4 egg whites on high speed until fluffy peaks form (~3 min). Gently fold into cake batter.
5. Divide batter between cake or cupcake pans. Bake for 30-32 minutes (cake) or 20-25 minutes (cupcakes) or until clean toothpick. Be careful not to overbake as the cakes may dry out. Cool completely in the pans set on a wire rack before frosting and assembling.
