While many Red Velvet Cakes use red food colouring to achieve their vibrant reddish colour, did you know that you can still make a Red Velvet Cake without using food colouring? Cocoa powder, buttermilk, and vinegar are common ingredients in Red Velvet Cake. When anthocyanin, a chemical compound found in cocoa powder, comes into contact with acids from buttermilk or vinegar, it undergoes a chemical reaction, turning the cake a beautiful shade of red. If food colouring doesn't sit well with you, you can try making it without.
