Why is everything at room temperature? When everything is near the same temperature, they mix together easily, evenly, and produce a uniform texture. It’s important!

Food coloring is also a hit among those who decorate cakes and pastries. In particular, when items get exposed to light, air, severe temperatures, and moisture, food color compensates for the loss of natural hues. Unsweetened Cocoa Powder:2 Tablespoons is plenty for a little cocoa flavor without overpowering the vanilla and butter flavors.While any food coloring can get messy, you can save yourself some hassles if you properly prepare.

Scientists are still researching and debating the effects and potential risks of food dyes on human health. A large number of dyes (91 to be exact) were once approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but have since been banned after negative effects were discovered in lab tests. Given that food dyes are synthesized from coal tar or petroleum, it’s not surprising that they’re not ideal for human health. Vinegar: The vinegar helps brighten the red color. Don’t get scared, a touch of vinegar is normal in red velvet desserts! You can’t taste it. The inadequacy of much of the testing and the evidence for carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, and hypersensitivity, coupled with the fact that dyes do not improve the safety or nutritional quality of foods, indicates that all of the currently used dyes should be removed from the food supply and replaced, if at all, by safer colorings.”Butter & Oil: What sets red velvet cake apart from chocolate is its buttery flavor. With only butter, we risk a dry cake. With only oil, we lose the butter flavor and softness that comes with creaming butter & sugar together. So all that’s to say, use both butter and oil. Moist texture, soft and cakey texture, buttery flavor.
