Eggless Red Velvet Cake Recipe | Red Velvet Cake with Beetroot Recipe
Red Velvet Cake, a cake with red color or red-brown color. It is traditionally prepared as a layered cake with cream cheese topping. Beetroot or red food color is added to get the dark red color in the cake. A moist Red Velvet cake is a perfect dessert for a festive mood. As valentine’s Day is approaching, I thought this recipe would be useful. This is an eggless version. But still we get the same moist and spongy cake and with the cream cheese frosting and sugar sprinklers, this would be really an awesome dessert.

I tried this cake, it came very well, thank you
Very nice and easy recipe. Came out very soft and moist. Thank you so much..
Great to hear !.
Thank you so much for nice recipe. The cake came out very soft & moist. But it was more darker in color nothing even close to red velvet color. Also i could smell vinegar in it. Can it be replaced by anything else. Kindly suggest.
Hi Surabi, instead of vinegar we can use lemon juice. just we want lemon or vinegar to react with baking powder to get the fluffiness of the cake
Hi dear it’s came out so awesome only my color wasn’t same red as yours. Mine looks like chocolate cake.
Thank you so much. Glad it came out good. Color will be based on the beet we use.
