That isn't a pic of my cake, I googled for the pic above to show anyone who hasn't heard of a red velvet cake what it looks like, I haven't frosted mine because I was just testing out the cake recipe to see if the cake will be suitable for my daughters birthday cake.
The end result... looks fab with a light, yet moist texture, and it's very VERY scrummy!
The recipe I used called for vanilla extract, but I used raspberry flavouring, I'm really happy that I did too because it gives a subtle flavour which works so well with the cocoa powder & reminds me a little of these...
Oooooh that looks yum. Get the kettle on, I'll be there in a few hours! ;) Glad preparations are going well for the weekend. Mwah. xxx
