How to Make a Bakery Style RED VELVET CAKE from a Box Cake Mix using BASIC BAKING HACKS

[@Keshaskitchen901]

I just made this recipe and y’all let me tell you!!! I’m probably one of the biggest cake critics it’s hard to get my tastebuds to like anything artificial cake wise lol I was honestly googling homemade red velvet cake recipes and this video somehow came up the thumbnail/pic is what made me click the video and I went straight to the comments and I was very impressed by people saying they made it and good and moist it was.. I then watched the video actually 3 or 4 times within the last 2weeks 😅 so when I tell you this is the best I mean very BEST box cake fixer up I’ve ever tasted and made honey child if you haven’t made this pleeeease try it just once and I promise you’ll make it over and over for your family and friends 💯 Thank you so much for this recipe I’ll definitely be stalking your page 😂for more recipes

[@klausrostock4163]

Your review made me try this recipe! Thanks

[@janicescott7338]

Wow, I can’t wait! Did you do it exactly like it shows here? Buttermilk and sour cream? I’m making it but have to go get sour cream tomorrow.

[@cindyadair-ms5ph]

I’m definitely going to try this!!!

[@malakangel8088]

I just made this cake for my daughter's birthday and I am a professional baker and I'm telling you I have NEVER tasted a more tasty , moist cake in my life !!!! You're gonna ask, why are u making a doctored cake if you are a pro baker 😂, well I am very sick with the worst flu and I needed something fast .. I rate this recipe a 10 out of 10 !!!! Thank you ❤

[@carolynwilson1578]

Ms. Mansa, I made red velvet cupcakes and I never could get my cake or cupcakes to taste right. But honey, I followed your instructions step-by-step and those cupcakes were DELICIOUS 😋..Thx U!

[@MansaQueen]

Aww am glad it worked out for you! Thank you for the feedback 🥰

[@beautifulsky4481]

I was just wondering about cupcakes. Me and my granddaughter always bake cupcakes when she comes over. I can't wait to try this. Im also wanting to add some white chocolate chips to the batter but don't know how much. Thanks!

[@punampatelgrewal8082]

I'm going to try this. Thanks for the comments Carolyn.

[@yvonnecooper8915]

Can dark roasted cold brew coffee be used

[@melissatorres6360]

Hello, how long did you bake the cupcakes for?

[@alphadiva]

I made this cake and followed the instruction to the "T" and it turned out just as she stated....moist and delicious. thanks for sharing Mansa Queen

[@c-raerae3336]

I swear your yellow cake hack is the first time I've been able to make a yellow batter cake from cake mix. I do all the cooking but little baking. This TG I finally made my son his yellow batter cake with chocolate icing and he went wild. Thing turned out PERFECT just as you described making it. You gave me everything I needed to succeed. #humblethanks

[@cayayo8541]

Ms. Mansa, if your ears are ringing is because my coworkers are singing high praises to you. I baked the cake last night and my apartment smell like chocolate paradise. The cake is moist, chocolately and simply delicious. The icing is like a cloud of air. Thank you for teaching mr how to bake. I have never baked before, this is my second time and so far both recipes came perfect. God bless you!

[@marcgauthier6318]

They didn’t have red velvet cake mix at my store. So, I used a chocolate cake mix to make myself a 64th birthday cake. It was fantastic. Absolutely LOVED the cream cheese icing. Not too sweet and just tangy enough. Thanks Mamsa Queen! 🤗

[@Eelah3]

Hello, You helped build my confidence to bake for the first time. I followed your recipe in this video to the upper case T and made my Bae some red velvet cupcakes for his birthday. He LOVED them. He said the cake was nice and moist. I wish I did the homemade icing but that’s ok. Next time. You add-ins of sour cream and buttermilk were spot on along with extra eggs and butter. That brand of butter will forever be in my fridge. The coffee… 🤯 genius. I will continue learning and doing with your videos. I really like this semi- homemade life. Thank you so much!!!! My small goal is making delicious homemade pound cake ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.

[@MansaQueen]

Thanks a lot for the feedback, am glad you’re enjoying Baking

[@pamkillian6049]

Dear Lady you're a woman after my own heart! That was a beautiful generous piece of cake! Not some teeny weeny slice! I'm trying this for a party and I know it will be a hit! Thank you and God Bless You!

[@braziliancoffee1533]

Hi Mansa Q! I just made my Second one... will give it to a good friend who recently got married. His wife tasted my first RV Cake. She fell in love with it. I baked it for her. I will deliver it on Saturday 2/12- Thank you again. Cheers.

[@CherryJ2911]

Aww that’s nice of you 🙌🏾❤️

[@rosetta1314]

I made this cake for my brother at church whom had been asking for me to make him a RVC, omg this cake was delish made it exactly like you did..... I can't wait to make another thanks my sister

[@lovelynight5967]

I made this yesterday for Valentine's Day and it was absolutely amazing, super moist did not taste like a box cake at all. Thank you for your tips. Most of the time I make cakes from scratch but this saves me a lot of time.

[@piperbellora107]

I just made your Red Velvet Cake and it was absolutely the Best RVC I have ever had. My husband could not quit eating it. I am making the triple chocolate cake next!! Thank you for sharing with us. ❤️🙏❤️

[@MansaQueen]

Wow that’s for sharing this feedback! 🥰 am glad y’all like it

[@wilsongordonghana]

I'm learning more in your kitchen the way you have been bringing your cake and your pastries keep it up

[@MansaQueen]

Thanks for watching bro

[@olgapinnekins3103]

[@carlahall5331]

[@peggybarney1732]

[@wakiyen78]

Your recipe saved me tonight I had promised red velvet cupcakes i tried two batches on my own no good. Found your video what a life saver!!!

[@micheledavis1221]

Can I ask what temp and how long you made your cupcakes? I want to use this recipe for cupcakes.

[@annewalsworth2220]

Hi there and adding sour cream and buttermilk is a brilliant addition to this box mix! These box cake mixes are such a great idea, with your excellent additions! Thank you for sharing and God bless you!

[@MansaQueen]

Yes they are! Thank you so much! 🥰

[@paulneale988]

@@MansaQueen I'm going to make this tonight for my grandsons, but why the coffee.

[@barbarapicketts6813]

I made this red velvet cake tonight it was delicious it was very very moist but I messed up on the icing, When my cake came out of the Pan it was like some of the cake in the icing together. I don't know what I did wrong, but I'm thinking. Maybe I didn't put enough butter on the Pan. I think that's what happened but the cake was delicious, thank you. This is my 1st time making a cake in a long, long time. I started it around 8o'clock at night, but I finished around 12 o'clock. I have a problem with my back, so when my back hurts so bad, I have to lay down and then come back. That's what took me so long. 😊 I will make this cake again.

[@v.s.vitale]

I made this for valentine's day for my family. It was AMAZING...very dense (in the best way), moist, chocolatie, and yummy. I've never watched my family eat that many servings! Thank you :-)

[@alissagonzales735]

I made this today. Just looking to make something for the girls at our sewing meet. They ate it all up. They asked me for the recipe I told them it was your hack. They looked it up and said it might as well be home made. It was that good. Tomorrow I will be doing the seven up cake to take to my husband's friend. Tuesday a lemon cake for my husband pool playing buddies at the senior center.

[@youdontsay3379]

I made this yesterday using a 6 inch bundt pan and an 8x8 inch square disposable aluminium pan. Turned out great. I halved the icing amount and had enough to frost both cakes

[@CamirrasKitchen]

I think you turning into the cake hack queen!!

[@teresadunavant2029]

The cake was amazing. Thanks for the hack. If you add a stick of butter to your cream cheese it gives it more body. 😊

[@greeninspiredliving7115]

I just baked you red velvet cake and me and my husband loved it. We did the bounce back in the cake, it is so moist and it melts in your mouth. I will tag you on IG. Thank you for sharing all of your great baking tips with us.

[@MansaQueen]

Thanks again for the tag on IG ! Appreciate it 🥰

[@mrsSardiperez]

Just wanted to let you know. I don’t know how to make. Not even following steps. You have made it so easy for me. I really appreciate you. Thank you. By the way. I will be bringing cake to the thanksgiving dinner. Thanks to you 😊

Love your directions. I jazzed up a chocolate cake mix with butter, melted chocolate, milk, coffee and a spoonful of sour cream. Made a great Black Forest and no one knew it was box.

[@revecarodriguez709]

Can you believe when the first boxes of red velvet came I had to have ! I bought 2 boxes at $2.49 for each one to make a Bundt cake . I followed the instructions which I knew what you do to yours , anyway it got done a total flop it seemed like it was undercooked, it rose then it went down like a pancake ! I’ve never had any kind of problems with any of my cakes except for this one ! I go to the store pick it up then remember the mess , put it right back , not so again, I’m going to buy & change up the directions like you do !

[@SuperBettyboop40]
