A Red Velvet Cake is very dramatic looking with its bright red color that is offset by a creamy white
frosting. There are many theories as to its origin. Some say it comes from the South, others say it
originated in the North. All we really know is that it has been a favorite for decades, not only in the States
but also in Canada (it used to be sold in Eaton's Department Stores). It is really a Devil's Food Cake that
has red food coloring added to it. John Mariani tells us in his book "The Dictionary of American Food and
Drink" that the name 'Devil's Food Cake' is so called "because it is supposedly so rich and delicious that
it must, to a moralist, be somewhat sinful."

If we look beyond the striking appearance of this Red Velvet Cake, we will find that it has a mild
chocolate flavor with a moist and tender crumb. The mild chocolate flavor comes from adding a small
amount of cocoa powder to the batter and buttermilk gives it a moist and tender crumb. If you are not
familiar with buttermilk it has a nice thick creamy texture with a rich tangy buttery taste that makes baked
goods tender. You can make your own buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon of white distilled vinegar, cider
vinegar, or lemon juice to 1 cup (240 ml) of milk. Let this mixture stand 5 to 10 minutes before using.
Once the Red Velvet Cake layers have been baked and cooled, I find it is best to place the cake layers in
the refrigerator (for several hours) or freezer (for at least an hour) before frosting. This extra step makes
the spreading of the frosting a much easier task as a freshly baked cake is quite fragile and when you try
to spread the frosting there is a tendency for the cake to tear. Refrigerating or freezing the cake first
eliminates this problem. In fact, you may want to bake the cakes the day before you need them and then
you can just place the cakes in the fridge overnight to firm up.
The type of frosting used on a Red Velvet Cake can vary. While I have used a Cream Cheese Frosting,
other recipes often call for a 7-Minute Frosting or even a White Confectioners Frosting. Recently I found
a new cream cheese frosting that I like very much and I have included it here. It still uses cream cheese
but it also contains mascarpone cheese, which is an Italian cheese that is thick, buttery-rich, delicately
sweet and velvety, ivory-colored cheese produced from cow's milk. Its texture is similar to that of sour
cream. It is sold in plastic 8-ounce tubs and you can usually find it in specialty food stores or in the deli
section of your local grocery store. If you cannot find Mascarpone just use regular cream cheese instead,
which means using 16 ounces of cream cheese altogether. Besides the cream cheese and mascarpone,
this frosting also contains whipped cream so you end up with a soft and creamy frosting. The frosting
recipe is adapted from 'The Waldorf-Astoria Cookbook' by John Doherty.
