Soft and Creamy Red Velvet Cakes for Special Moments

Red velvet cake gets its signature crimson hue from red food coloring, though traditionally it came from a reaction between cocoa powder and acidic ingredients. The taste is a unique blend of mild chocolate, tangy buttermilk, and vanilla, creating a subtle cocoa flavor that's less intense than regular chocolate cake. It's topped with cream cheese frosting for a rich, tangy finish.

A red velvet cake stays fresh for 1-2 days at room temperature in cool weather, but refrigeration extends its life to 4-5 days. Since it has cream cheese frosting, it's best stored in the fridge, especially during summer months. Bring it to room temperature 20-30 minutes before serving for optimal taste and texture.
