I once had a potential bride order a red velvet cake from me for her birthday. Just an iced red velvet cake, no decorations. I don't normally do that but she wanted to taste my red velvet and didn't want to pay for a full decorated cake. I agreed knowing for sure she would book me after the first bite because my red velvet is eye rolling good! After I met with her to give her the cake she told me she would call me once she tasted it.
A few hours later my phone rings...
With a big smile on my face, "HI!"
Her: "Hey, um the cake was ok... But I like mine better."
Me: "Oh, ok... Well..."
Her interrupting my shock, "I mean it tastes good, but I can't taste the cocoa powder."
Me: "Well, you really shouldn't be able to taste the cocoa powder because there's only a teaspoon in it."
Her: "I can taste the cocoa powder in mine when I make it."
Me: "You must have some super tastes buds because there's only a tiny amount for the whole recipe!"
Her: "Thats what makes a red velvet cake a red velvet cake... The cocoa powder!"

My Final Thoughts:
I hate you... Yes, you and your super human taste buds! You are a ducking idiot! What makes a red velvet cake... Ducking RED food coloring bitch!! That's the ingredient you're thinking of!
Good luck making you're own wedding cake since your red velvet cake is so ducking delicious and obviously each ingredient stands out in every bite. Yum, that bite tastes like flour and ohhh this one was especially delicious am I tasting the salt, raw eggs, and baking soda with a finishing note of... Hmmmm ohh yes, the velvety part of this cake - vinegar. Idiot!
