The Smokin Knights

The red velvet cake, sometimes called devil’s food cake, is traditionally frosted with white sugar or cream cheese icing to provide a sharp contrast with the ruby red cake underneath. Depending on the red velvet cake recipe being used, this color can come from obvious sources like food coloring, or more unique and classic ingredients like beetroot and cocoa. Rich, moist, and delicious, using a red velvet cake recipe gives your contribution to the baked goods arena a visually enticing touch and a unique presentation among the ho-hum yellow, angel food, and regular chocolate cakes crowding the baked goods section of traditional desserts.
