    Hi all, cream …
    Hi all, cream cheese and buttercream are both not traditional icings for Red Velvet. They developed because it was easier for bakeries as they had those icings handy, etc. Originally it was made with an icing of a roux and ingredients whipped with crisco! Shocking these days, but super yummy and pure white.

    WOW, I am SHOCKED …
    WOW, I am SHOCKED you say that! It must be a cultural thing, because I am a baker, an 41 years old an I have NEVER heard of Red Velvet cake with any other icing. Cream Cheese Icing is the Icing of choice for Red Velvet. Not to be funny, but if you call 10 bakerys randomly, I will guarantee you, they will tell you cream cheese is the icing of choice and they use it on their Red Velvet.

    I have been making …
    I have been making Red Velvet cakes for years. I do not know who came up with the idea to put cream cheese frosting on this cake. Cream cheese frosting is for cakes like spice or carrot cake. The real Red velvet cake does not have Cream Cheese Icing on it. It has a buttery icing. If you made the correct Icing that goes with this cake you would never use Cream cheese on it again. Stop ruining your red velvet cake
