Red Velvet Cake Results

Although I did not take any pictures of the red velvet cake I made, I did manage to take a picture with my phone. As you can see my RED velvet cake did not end up so red, although the batter looked pretty red to me, once I took it out of the oven it was brown as if it were chocolate—and many people also asked me if it was chocolate cake. I also did not have enough pink fondant to completely decorate my cake or add any extra decorations. But I did make two small 6 inch cakes and stacked them on top of each other to make one tier. I also filled the cake with vanilla icing although I added coffee to give it a coffee mocha flavor; between the two cakes I added pieces of walnuts instead of fruit. I only brought a couple of slices of cake to school and for the most part, people said they liked it.

Red Velvet Cake

My next project will be to make, or attempt to make, red velvet cake. The recipe is also quite simple and it does not require too much work. The cake recipe says that if you follow the exact recipe the cake should come out moist and very good. I don’t have all the ingredients, such as buttermilk, which I probably will have to go out and purchase. I plan on making two small cakes and stacking them on top of each other, to make one teir. I will post my results after.
