What makes red velvet cake different from other cake?
It actually isn’t much different from other cakes. The only big differences are probably the red coloring and the hint of chocolate in the cake. Contrary to popular belief though, a good red velvet cake only has a hint of chocolate so that it is barely discernible when you eat it. Some recipes pretty much have to make a chocolate cake and add tons of food coloring, which is not correct. In addition, red velvet cake uses baking soda and a touch of vinegar in addition to baking powder as leavening.
