Red Velvet Cake is a visually striking layer cake known for its deep crimson-red color, subtle cocoa flavor, and soft, moist texture. It’s traditionally layered with cream cheese frosting or Ermine (cooked flour) frosting. While its exact origins are debated, Red Velvet Cake became popular in the American South, with strong ties to Texas and the Deep South, and gained widespread fame through bakeries like New York’s Waldorf-Astoria in the early 20th century. The red hue was originally enhanced by the reaction between natural cocoa and acidic ingredients like buttermilk and vinegar, though modern recipes often use food coloring.
