Ever since I saw Steel Magnolias I have been wary of red velvet cake. In the film they make a cake shaped to look like an armadillo and it is made of red velvet cake. So, it looks like the bloody insides of the animal...sick!
So, now I really can't ever bring myself to eat the stuff. What flavor is red velvet anyway? Is it just red dye? I don't get it.

hahahaha actually it's pretty good. Only tainted slightly by Steel Magnolias ;)
I always hope that it tastes like Red Crystal Light...the kind that could be any berry flavor or the base formula for Children's Tylenol. Either way, I am sure it probably all tastes really good with a really big box of cheap wine.
thrilled i found your blog!! loved hearing about where and how you are!!
Red Velevt cake is actually chocolate cake dyed red. It was orignially devil's food cake and the red color cama from a reaction between early types of cocoa and baking soda. I've never had it though, but it should be good.
that is so helpful Brie! thanks.
Hello! I love the movie, but have never been a fan of cake. Looks like brie has got the answmers:):)
I love the stuff. It's a buttermilk cake kissed with cocoa. Delicious if you have the right recipe. Makes a great 4th of July cake if you ice it white!
