Because brown velvet cake doesn't have the same sexy ring

>>17349239
I would have preferred blue velvet cake

I would have preferred blue waffle cake

Don’t forget red food colouring is made from a substance called carmine which is crushed up bug exoskeleton. You know those memes about “you will eat the bugs”? Too late. You already did.

>>17349296
And they use beaver anal gland juices to sweeten froot loops. Still gonna eat it.

>>17349239
Some people like beets as there sweetener, or it's just what's found in the country. I personally like red velvet cake. I like sugar cane cakes too, but beet flavored cake is great.

>>17349239
It’s supposed to be reddish due to non-alcalinized cocoa powder but most people nowadays use alkalinized cocoa powder (which won’t turn red) and food coloring.

>>17349302
Cause youre a fat useless consoomer idiot who loves ingesting plastic chemicals and sugar. Stop wearing it as a badge of honor you retarded nigger

Yes Chef! Sorry Chef!

>>17349302
That stuff is expensive, no way they'd use it in some cheap breakfast cereal. It's one of those things that gets loads of media attention despite being pretty uncommon these days, telling people they're eating beaver butt slime is very easy clickbait.

>>17349239
I will fucking rape you is that what you want?

>>17349239
originally the red color is due to non-Dutched, anthocyanin-rich cocoa

>>17349863
How about you stop being a screechy little zoomer who fucking cries about everything?
Who the fuck shits their pants with anger over a fucking red velvet cake?

>>17349239

>he simps for multinational corporations
>he defends mass produced cardboard ((cereal))
>he eats sugar for breakfast
>still thinks were talking about red velvet cake

Absolutely positively never gonna make it. Enjoy your high cholesterol, clogged arteries and diabetes at 40 you fat flyover fuck

Definitely not kosher ._.

BABY WANTS A SLICE

red velvet is shit. it's an overly sweetened cocoa cake which itself is terrible.

>>17349296
I remember a dude in the psychiatric he told me about this like 2 or 3 times.

>>17350143
Holy fuck take your meds faggot.

>>17351540
>hates cake
Well no shit you don’t like it, retard. It’s a cake.

>>17351580

the difference is the cream cheese icing

if you're eating cake enough to critique it then you're probably not eating it for health reasons, so i can't imagine why you'd care if it looks in any way appetizing

the red is to signal it has mayo in it like how you dye GHB blue

>>17349239
It looks pretty, I like it better than regular chocolate ckae.

>>17349296
It’s just a dye and does not contain insect fats or nutrients of any kind. Carmine dye isn’t the insect itself, but the dye that is extracted from it.

>>17349296
lol, anon did you know that you've drank water that was once included in a dinosaur's semen? you're literally drinking t-rex cum you dumb motherfucker

what makes a red velvet cake a red velvet cake is instead of eggs, as it was created during the great depression, you use a vinegar and baking soda reaction. This gives it a slightly more sour bite than regular chocolate cake, thus the cream cheese frosting.

oh good, someone already explained it.

>>17353526

This is also a good point, but red velvet is still overrated bottom-tier swill in most cases. It CAN be made well, but most places just aren't willing to put in the effort -- so they put in a gallon of food coloring and call it a day.

>>17349239
This.
I am east yuropoor and the first time I traveled to the west I ordered this in a coffee shop. Thought it would be a strawberry cake or something.
Needless to say, I was dissapointed.

>>17349239
>eating cake
Sorry I am not a faggit

>>17349296
I honestly see absolutely zero reason to be grossed out by this. Why is it that y’all get so upset about bugs but don’t seem to care about all the synthetic chemicals being used in our food today?

>>17349296
Not in America! We make ours from petroleum, as God intended, and include some carcinogenic aromatic hydrocarbon contaminants in the final product for good measure.

>>17352350
This. The cake is merely a delivery vessel.

>>17349239
Aren't some of those different types of chocolate?

>>17349296
So? What's wrong with using products from all kinds of animals? Unless you're some sort of senstive effeminate faggot that's afraid/disgusted by the mere thought of touching a bug.

>>17349239
It's chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting, one of the best kinds of frosting there is.

cinamon cake sounds good man

Just gonna write that carrot cake is the best

>>17355192
You're 100% right.

>>17355192
I agree

>>17349239
the red makes it taste better

>>17357149
The red makes it go faster

>>17353333
>Carmine dye isn’t the insect itself, but the dye that is extracted from it.

Red makes it cook faster

>>17349296

>>17355192
>vegetable cake
