Classic American Seasonal Sweets: Spotlight on the Bold Red Red Velvet Cake♡

The Cute Cake with Red Sponge Cake ♡
This red sponge cake can often be seen overseas ♡
Unlike the usual beige or brown sponge cakes, this design really stands out and draws attention*
Known as "Red Velvet Cake," it has been loved in America for a long time (especially during the holiday season ♡)♩
This bright red color is the result of a chemical reaction between cocoa, baking soda, and acid. It's not made with food coloring or red ingredients like strawberries. Surprising, isn't it?
Recently, due to changes in cocoa's properties, it has become less able to develop its signature red color, so it's often colored with beets now*
In other countries, red velvet cake is commonly sold in bakeries and served at home parties as “mom's homemade cake,” but it's not frequently seen in Japan, so it would likely surprise people if used as a wedding cake ♡
Here are some cute designs for a “Velvet Wedding Cake” made with red sponge cake*
