Re: Red Velvet cake recipe
I make the cupcakes instead, too tempting to have a whole cake laying around the house.

Re: Red Velvet cake recipe
I've just seen a recipe with beetroot used in stead of food colouring. Beetroot is a great alternative to the chemicals in food colouring, also you can make a delish chocolate cake with beetroot.
