Red Velvet Cake
Red velvet cake is a striking layer cake known for its vibrant red color, subtle cocoa flavor, and tangy buttermilk base, topped with cream cheese frosting. The distinctive color was originally the result of a reaction between cocoa and acidic ingredients, though food coloring is now commonly used. It has deep roots in Southern American baking and is a popular choice for celebrations.
