Red Velvet Cake. Everybody is crazy for this red cake. I have had some, too, and its good. Did you know that the Red Velvet Cake was invented by a slave woman? One night during the holidays, the slave master told her to bake a chocolate cake for the family and guest that was coming to dinner. While making the cake, red food coloring was accidently spilled into the batter! She feared for her life because when you are told to make something in the kitchen and it don't come out right, the Master will have you lynched. She continued to make the cake and bake it. It came out deep red!! She really feared for her life! She frosted the cake in white frosting and served the cake. He loved it!!! So did the family and guests! Her life was saved and she thanked God for sparing her life from an accident. Ever since that night, the Master always had her make this cake on special occasions, therefore, the Red Velvet Cake was born!
