Hi Natalie can you please teach how to make all purpose flour at home 🏡 thank you for sharing this lovely recipe happy baking 😊
@@Natashaskitchen غ
I made your red velvet cake for a friend that had her 83 birthday. It brought tears to her eyes. She blew out her one candle and we all enjoyed the cake. Our grandsons were home from college and the Army. They were so good excited to take some with them. The frosting was so delicious and the cake was a favorite. Thank you for helping to make everyone happy.
That is so sweet. I’m so glad it was enjoyed 🤍
Aaaw that just made my day! Thank you for sharing: ❤️❤️
My daughter wants a red velvet cake for her birthday, thank you for the recipe
I always mix the gel food coloring into the milk! Gets it all off the measuring spoon and you don’t overmix the batter
I was a single mom for 12 years and two years ago I suddenly became a stepmom and a wife for the first time. I never cooked a day in my life and at 36 years old I now cook large meals for my very growing family. All because of your channel I’ve learned how to cook and my husband is also very thankful for your channel 😂 We love Natasha and all of her life saving recipes that end our busy days with such pleasantly full tummies. Thank you for teaching me how to cook for my family ❤️❤️❤️
I love how you give detailed information, I have been looking for the perfect recipe to make a red velvet cake for Christmas and I found your recipe,its soo lovely
A good tip to keep your cake platter clean from icing and decorating is using 4 sheets of parchment paper and lay it into a square on the platter. Then you can just pull out the parchment paper sheets when you're done icing and decorating! If that made sense lol I don't bake, but I've seen that tip before.
Tried this cake, it's amazing. Actually got me my first ever cake order. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
How's the business going?
Tried this cake its amazing actually got me my first ever cake order thank you so much
@@FEMININELY_ME it's getting better by the day. Still working on the icing
Omg congratulations pretty!!❤️
@@abbiemchena1697 check out Divas can cook website and KZhead channel she has a few different cream cheese icing recipes for her red velvet cakes
I'm 13 and I've been baking for 2 years :) And I absolutely love the passion that you have for baking. Your efforts are worth it, Natasha. Thank you for sharing such tasty delights. Love from India❤️
Thank you so much! Keep up the good work 👌
Namaste Shrestha 🙂 I just did a chocolate hazelnut mousse cake, since you love baking, I would like to get your opinion on my recipe 💕
@@Natashaskitchen good
this cake is AMAZING ! tried it for valentines day weekend and it is a family favorite :)
That's awesome and pretty perfect way for the Red Velvet cake for Valentine's day! Love you and your perfect recipe, Natasha! Happy Valentine's Day! 👍💓💕💞🍰🍰🍰
I just love her sense of humor
Made this cake today and wow. AMAZING! I didn’t have buttermilk so i subbed that with 3/4C plain yogurt mixed with 1/4C water. So delicious! Thank you for the recipe!
Tip: If you don't have distilled white vinegar, you can use FRESH lemon juice. It works just as good.
Thanks for sharing that with us.
this cake looks amazing and I love your energy. I'm going to make this cake for my family today.
Thank you so much for the recipe! You are very enthusiastic and the best! My grandma's birthday is coming this month and I want to make her a red velvet cake for her birthday!
Love her personality and how she explain everything she does
Natasha wasnt lying when she said that its a fancy bakery quality. I made this in a muffin form and it tastes soooo good. It tastes good even without the frosting. ❤️❤️❤️
Very nice! Thanks for sharing that with us.
Red blouse, red roses, red cast iron, red hand mixing and of course Red Velvet Cake. Perfect !!
Oh yes! ❤️
I am so excited for this recipe! I am a big red velvet cake fan and I know this is going to be amazing
Currently making this and I'm at the coolintg part. I have to say,m this was AMAZING! It was so easy, and everything went so smoothly! I even used powder food-colouring and it still wen perfectly! Now I just have to wait for it to cool, make the frosting, decorate it, and I'll be done!
Could you please tell me the flour measurement in gms Thanks
Watching while baking this recipe now. Perfect timing! So Yummy! 😋❤️ Thank you. You inspires me a lot. 😘
Wow sounds great! I hope it becomes a success ❤️
We just bought the ingredients for a lot of the foods you've made and all of this week's meals are going to be from Natasha's Recipes 💃💃😊 They'll turn out great, I'm sure
Baked this cake for my birthday last March 6. It turned out really amazing! 😍 Thank you, Natasha! Been using your recipes lately. ❤️
Very nice! Glad it was a hit ❤️ belated happy birthday!
Could you please tell me the flour measurement in gms Thanks
I made this for my brother’s birthday and it was absolutely amazing! I love your recipes, they are so fun and easy to make! ❤️😊
Could you please tell me the flour measurement in gms Thanks
If it's from Natasha's Kitchen you know it's FANTASTIC!!! 😋🤩😘
Red velvet cake is one I have never made before but I am definitely going to try to make it soon. Looks fantastic 😍
I love how she got real with it at the end and just took a monster bite out of it! This recipe looks great, I'm going to use it to make my first red velvet cake, which will be this week!
Yay that is exciting!! We would love to know how it turns out so please update us.
@@Natashaskitchen, super easy recipe that turned out pretty good. It was a little dense and a little dry, but those issues are 100% on me, I seem to always have those problems when I make cakes from scratch (I'm assuming the density is from stirring the batter too much and the dryness is from baking too much [the sides of the cake also shrunk from the sides , a sure sign of baking too long]). Both problems should be easy to fix with time and practice. I imagine that once I can get mine to the level as yours, I'll be sinking my teeth into it like Natasha did at the end of the video!
@@kiltedtennessean5380 oh. So stirring the batter too much isn't a good idea? I thought that makes the cake softer?
@@victoriarani3114, that's what I've always known, and still struggle a bit with finding the right "stopping point" with stirring sweet batters.
Hi Natasha, my sister and I made this today for Valentine’s Day. It was so good! The cake was nice and moist. The frosting was not too sweet, it had the right amount of sweetness. This was the best cake recipe we made by you so far. Thanks for the recipe Natasha! Keep it up! We will continue to use more of your recipes :)
Thank you for such a nice review of the recipe. I’m so glad to hear that 🥰
Could you please tell me the flour measurement in gms Thanks
I have made this 5 times we are addicted. It is THE BEST RED VELVET CAKE RECIPE I HAVE EVER TRIED. Thank you so much for this. I am about to make this again for my nieces. I use 3 7 inch pans to make it a 3 layer and the measuremnts are perfect for it. Thank you again.
Wow, that’s a fantastic comment. Thank you so much for sharing that with us ❤️❤️
This is by far the best recipe I've tried for a red velvet cake! So moist and delicious. The frosting adds the perfect sweetness and your tip about not having the ingredients soft worked wonders for me! Thank you so much ❤️❤️
You are so welcome! I'm glad to know that this is one of the best recipes that you've tried.
Thanks so much i will try this recipe
Cake is yummy
I love red velvet cake, am glad watching you make one. Thanks as always.
I am a 40+ year old man who got hurt on the job and decided to take on baking to get me past all this. I needed a guide through all the ingredients and you have been my Jedi master. Thank you

@@Natashaskitchen can I use this same recipe and just put it in a cupcake pan?
I tried this recipe Sunday. It's Wednesday now and the cake is still unbelievably moist. This is the softest red velvet cake I've ever had. I have to make some adjustments to the time and temp. After 30 minutes, mine was still liquid in the middle. I left it in for an additional 30 minutes and it started to burn at the bottom.
Could you please tell me the flour measurement in gms Thanks
Natasha's I enjoy watching you cooking. Plus I learn so much from you, I thank you for that.
I have to make this. Your positive vibe is what convinced me I will make this cake. You cook with love, happiness and a beautiful aura....and you laugh while your cooking. Thank you so much.
Please do! I hope it becomes your new favorite.

Hello, I made this and it’s so delicious 😍 can use 8” pan and double the recipe?
Hey! Sis! sis i thought of baking this cake so can we use the food colouring before adding the dry mixer as it will bring out the more red colour i think😊
I need to make my mom this for her bday she loves velvet cake..
I hope she is super impressed!! It's a good one! :)
How much heat?
I made this recipe into cupcakes, and they were absolutely delicious, and they became even more delicious after I made the cream cheese frosting, finally a cream cheese frosting that does not taste completely like cream cheese. Thank you again for the tips about the frosting Mrs. Natasha😃
Yay happy to hear that it was a huge success!

Natasha, I absolute LOVE all of your recipes! Any time I need a recipe, the first thing I do is check to see if you've made it. :) I do have one question about this cake...I want to make it for Valentine's Day and I'm wondering if this would work with a heart shaped cake pan - maybe a 9 or 10 inch?
Thank you for the trust! I imagine it will work but I haven’t tried that to advise of thr exact timing and measurements.
