red velvet cake recipe | easy & moist eggless velvet cake recipe with step by step photo and video recipe. like any other cake recipe, even red velvet cake is prepared with combination of all purpose flour, cocoa powder, condensed milk, butter and milk. however it also contains buttermilk or vinegar which makes it unique and yields a soft and moist cake due to the gas-producing reaction of acidic substance.
well i have baked couple of other basic cake recipes, but red velvet cake recipewasn’t the easy one to bake it. i had to try it 3 times till i get a near perfect and moist one. hence i can say that this recipe is tried and tested one and you would not be disappointed with the result. in the initial attempts i had prepared with buttermilk, but the results were not pleasing. the main reason to use buttermilk was due to its easy availability in every kitchen. but i had to fall back to the vinegar and i was comfortable with the end result.
furthermore some important tips and recommendations for a perfect and moistred velvet cake recipe. firstly, i have used 4 tsp red food colour in this recipe which can be replaced with gel food colour as well. if you are using gel colour, 1 tsp should be more than sufficient. secondly, velvet cake is typically prepared with maida flour, however wheat flour can also be used as alternative. lastly, apply the cream cheese frosting only after the baked cake is completely cooled down.
finally, i have posted quite a few eggless cakes recipes collection and i would request to visit them. it includes, eggless chocolate cake, cupcake, black forest cake, rava cake, choco lava cake, cream cheese cake, ice cream cake, vanilla cake, mug cake and plum cake recipe. in addition do visit my other recipes collection with this recipe ofred velvet cake,
