Having started humbly, the status that these cakes have attained is overwhelming. They are believed to have been first conceived towards the 1800s when cooks in America were still involved in the struggle of perfecting the cakes that they made. They made use of cornstarch, cocoa, almond flour, to soften the flour protein to attain a softer, finer texture for their cakes.
The outcome was finely tagged in the Red velvet cake owing to its velvety feel. As the years passed these cakes went on to be known by various names, like mahogany cakes, devil food cake, sister cakes, and so on.
It was only towards the 1930s that these cakes made their newspaper debut in the Midwest and along the West Coast, dubbed as the Christmas cakes. As per an urban legend, the first modern red velvet cake was served at the Waldorf Astoria hotel and later on went to appear at Toronto's Eaton department store.
In all type of occasions and celebrations, the red velvet flavor holds the major part that helps you to satisfy the taste-buds of your loved ones. Although the red velvet cakes have been around since the 19th century, they took over the US food market only during the Great Depression.
In 1938, The Congress had passed a Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, setting regulations on food coloring. Meanwhile JohnA. Adams, the owner of food-dye and extract business, Adam Extract Company in Justin, Texas, had an idea that a red cake could actually help him sell more dyes. The company then somehow tricked a mahogany cake recipe which they printed on a card and began selling it with bottles of red dye, vanilla, and artificial butter flavoring (another popular outcome of rationing on food, this time butter during the World War II).
The recipe also included the formula of a rich and fluffy icing made of flour, milk, sugar and butter and known as the boiled-milk frosting or ermine. The supermarket recipe soon gained a lot of fame and found a place across kitchens in the Texan homes, later advancing towards South.
