Red Velvet is a theme that everybody likes. It’s actually a combo of cocoa powder and red food colouring so it seems fairly easy but it’s rather tricky to get it right. There are many different ways of making the red velvet cake and I’ve opted for the genoise type. Hope you like it!

Here is a detailed video on how to make a classic genoise. It’s detailed and contains lots of tips & tricks so I strongly recommend you to watch it before tackling the red velvet genoise:    • Foolproof secrets to a Perfect Sponge...
