[debm55]

6. Red Velvet.

I almost never eat it because all that red dye scares me…but my husband always buys two red velvet cupcakes for us from our local beloved Bernice’s Bakery for Valentine’s Day. Best. Cupcake. Ever. 🧁

9. Red Dye

Didn't the original recipe call for beet juice to get the red?
If I have that right, a juicer or a food processor and sieve would be a natural alternative. Plus, the sugar in the beets supplants some added sugar.

[debm55]

10. Thank you very much. That is so sweet that your husband buys you both a Red Velvet cupcake. TY MontanaMama.

Makes apple cakes they mail nation wide. The are only open 4 months a year but bake everything an apple or any fruit can be in.
But you hit a nerve here. I have not had a German Chocolate in many years. Now I gotta find one.
(I live WAAAy too close to the Apple cake place. Gotta stay away our I will blow up)
Cheers!

20. We live wa-a-a-a--ay too close to a Nothing Bundt Cakes franchise (about 0.7 miles)...

...and I am quite fond of their chocolate chocolate chip flavor - not a typo. Chocolate cake with chocolate chips and their signature cream cheese frosting. In marmer months, I have been know to walk there figuring I perhaps burn off about 3 bites worth of calories doing so.

Two doors down is a Crumbl' Cookies franchise - it's a dangerous area.

[debm55]

24. HAHAHHAHHAAHA. that is funny. 3catwoman3 .Enjoy them both.

21. Ginger Cake!!

Bake a Ginger Cake!

It's worth making this deliciously moist cake at least two or three
days before you want to serve it: the cake will store well in an airtight
tin and, as the days go by, it will mature in flavor—if it lasts that long!
Serve individual portions of the cake with a small spoonful of whipped
cream or créme fraiche on the side

ingredients

Preheat the oven to 350°F {180°C}

1 cup sugar syrup
1 cup molasses
2 sticks butter
3 cups superfine sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1-2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp baking soda
2 lerge eggs
6 fl oz (170 ml) boiling water

1 Grease and a round 9 3/4 in cake tin with parchment paper. Put
the syrup, molasses butter, and sugar in a saucepan and bring
gently to the boil.

2 Put the measured flour, spices and baking soda into a large bowl
and add the melted ingredients

3 Mix the dry and the melted ingredients together well with
a wooden spoon. Add the beaten eggs and mix thoroughly, then
add the boiking water.

4 Combine all the ingredients thoroughly. Pour the mix into the
_lined tin. Cook for 45-50 minutes, or until the cake springs back
if pressed lightly. Leave to cool in the tin.

33. My mom's recipe for Banana Cake

It was a chore to eat because the banana slices were attached with toothpicks but the flavor and texture were heavenly. It would get better every day (if it lasted) because the banana oil would seep into the yellow cake, eventually making a brown mess as the banana slices ripened and the cake practically liquefied. Eating it at that point was so indulgent and decadent I had to mention it when I went to confession.

[debm55]

42. HAHHAHHHAHHA. I love it. Thank you nuxvomica. It sounds wonderful and fit for the confessional

[Turbineguy]
