I decided to use an Asian natural red food dye called Red Yeast, the cake turned out with a brilliant red color. I'm happy with the result. Will post a pic of the cake soon.
Hi all, Do you use natural red food dye for Red Velvet cake? If you do, what do you use? I had seen some recipes use beets, Is there any other options?
You don't need sugar to cream coconut oil, it will cream up any ways if the temperature is right. Just be aware that coconut oil usually will turn liquid around 75 degrees.
It's not difficult to cream coconut oil. Just make sure the oil is soild befor you whip it; if your coconut oil is in liquid form, just put it into the refrigerator for few hours till it turns into butter-like texture. When the oil is ready for whipping, just put the oil and sugar into a mixer...
