[@iamcammie78]

Hey, Kurt! Love your videos and recipes. Easy to follow. Question: Can I use all purpose flour instead of cake flour?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Cam. If cake flour is not available, you can substitute with all purpose flour and cornstarch: for every 1 cup of cake flour needed, add 1 cup of AP flour, subtract 2 tbsp, then add 2 tbsp of cornstarch, and sift this together. This will act similar to cake flour. Cake flour has a lower protein content compared to AP flour - it creates a more tender texture, finer crumbs, and better rise, which are ideal for red velvet cakes like this. And substituting with AP flour + cornstarch combo imitates that. Hope this helps! :)

Hello - thanks for your comment! I'm glad you like this recipe and that your Red Velvet Cake turned out well. Yes, you can make cupcakes using this recipe.

[@jonceltvph9711]

I really love to try your version of Velvet cake soon i have some question about mixing all purpose flour of the frosting it cant affect the taste since all purpose flour is raw? Thank you very much

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Joncel - the raw all-purpose flour in the frosting is to thicken it and make it more stable. Just a little bit of flour (or cornstarch) in the frosting makes it a little stiffer and smoother, and helps it hold (not melt) at room temperature. But don’t add too much, otherwise the texture will become too grainy. Generally, it is not safe to eat raw flour or cornstarch etc. But with this very small amount (2 tbsp) it should be safe. And it's optional - so if you prefer not to put it in, you can leave it out, and the frosting should still work. Hope this helps! 😊

Yes, you can definitely use this batter recipe to make cupcakes. Same temperature - just reduce the baking time to 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a cupcake comes out clean. Hope this helps! :)

[@bujengjengjeng9810]

what will be the alternative if i don't have butter milk? Thank You

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello. If buttermilk is not available, you can substitute using 4 alternatives: for each cup of buttermilk, you can use 1 tbsp of white vinegar or 1 tbsp lemon juice or 2 tsp of cream of tartar - plus enough regular milk to measure 1 cup. Stir, then let stand for 5 minutes. You can also use 3/4 cup of plain yogurt plus 1/4 cup of regular milk. Any of these 4 alternatives will act similar to buttermilk. Hope this helps!

[@hazelgracebartolome8157]

Can I bake in one pan instead of two? I have 10inch baking pan at home☺️ thanks

Hi Hazel, I don’t think the batter will fit in one 10” pan. I’d recommend using two 9” pans like in the recipe. Hope this helps! 😊

Can I make a red velvet cupcake with this recipe? How many do you think it would produce?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Yes, you can definitely make red velvet cupcakes with this recipe. I haven't personally tried it, but I'd estimate this batter would make about 24 - 30 cupcakes, depending on how high you fill the cupcake liner. Hope this helps! :)

Hi Kurt.. I admire and follow your recipes..I feel like I am a good baker already ;) by the way if buttermilk is not available?is the milk can do?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hello - if buttermilk is not available, for each cup of buttermilk needed, you can use 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice plus enough regular milk to measure 1 cup. Stir, then let stand for 5 minutes. You can also use 1 cup of plain yogurt or 1-3/4 teaspoons cream of tartar plus 1 cup regular milk. Hope this helps!

Hello kurt, Im going to make ur red velvet cake tomorrow. Just want to ask if I used 4 cups of powdered sugar for the frosting, is it very sweet? It seems like 4 cups of powdered sugar is a lot. Thank you so much😚

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Nello. Red Velvet cakes are traditionally made with cream cheese frosting, which tend to be sweet. That said, you may make any changes that you see fit, any adjustments that will make this dish more enjoyable for you :)

Hi,kurt I like your video’s your cakes 🍰 is yummmm please tell me what is buttermilk can I made him at hom.

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Nabil - thanks for your comment! Glad you like my recipe videos. If buttermilk is not available, for each cup of buttermilk needed, you can use 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice plus enough regular milk to measure 1 cup. Stir, then let stand for 5 minutes. You can also use 1 cup of plain yogurt or 1-3/4 teaspoons cream of tartar plus 1 cup regular milk. Hope this helps!

[@ginagallardo4255]

What if I don’t have icing sugar is there any alternative for that?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Gina, thanks for your question! If powdered sugar is not available, but you have regular granulated sugar, you can make powdered sugar if you have a blender or coffee grinder. 1 cup of granulated sugar will make double the amount of powdered sugar. For every 1 cup of granulated sugar, add 1 tbsp of cornstarch (or whatever starch you like), to prevent clumping. To make 4 cups of powdered sugar needed in the recipe, add 2 cups of granulated sugar + 2 tbsp of cornstarch (can also use tapioca flour or arrowroot powder) into a blender, and blend for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Hope this helps! :)

Hey Kurt,can i use dutch process cocoa instead of the unsweetened cocoa?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Technically, I think the 2 tsp of baking powder + 1/2 tsp baking soda (like in recipe) will work if you only have Dutched cocoa powder. The only concern would be the baking soda making the cake bitter without enough neutralizing acid. I think there's enough acidity in the vinegar and buttermilk. But you could use 3 tsp of baking powder and leave out the baking soda if you want to be safe. Hope this helps! :)

[@narmeeful]

CookingwithKurt Thanks a lot! im gonna try making this for my dad’s bday tomorrow.. i only have dutch processed cocoa and black cocoa in the pantry,coz that’s what i use for my chocolate cake..

Hello again! I just made this and it’s super moist and I love it! I just have a question, why is that when you beat the egg whites you didn’t add sugar or cream of tartar? What is the difference?

[@cookingwithkurt]

Hi Taira, I'm glad your Red Velvet Cake turned out well! The sugar + cream of tartar technique used in the ube / mango / choco mocha cakes are for a chiffon cake. For chiffon cakes, the structure of the cake is created by the air bubbles trapped into the egg whites when you whip it into the meringue mixture. The air bubbles are what leaven the cake when it bakes. Cream of tartar and sugar helps to stabilize the egg whites, so that they whip up and gain volume. This Red Velvet Cake is technically not a chiffon cake. Red Velvet Cakes get most of the aeration in the batter from the acidic ingredients (buttermilk and vinegar) reacting with the bicarbonate in the baking soda / baking powder to create bubbles. In this recipe, I whip up the egg whites separately just to add a little more lightness to the cake as an extra boost. But don't use cream of tartar since the buttermilk/vinegar + baking soda/powder do most of the heavy lifting. Hope this answers your question :)

[@tairabaquiran8167]

CookingwithKurt thank you for the detailed explanation, it makes sense, I made this cake and it’s soooo moist! It’s sooooo good! This is my 2nd cake from your recipe and I Love it!!
