is devil's food cake the same as chocolate
Devil's food cake Devil's food cake is a moist, airy, rich chocolate layer cake. It is considered a counterpart to the white or yellow angel food cake. Because of differing recipes and changing ingredient availability over the course of the 20th century, it is difficult to precisely qualify what distinguishes devil's food from the more standard chocolate cake, though it traditionally has more chocolate than a regular chocolate cake, making it darker. The cake is usually paired with a rich chocolate frosting.
Red velvet cake Red Velvet cake is traditionally a red, red-brown, or "mahogany" colored[1] layer cake, layered with white cream cheese icing or Ermine[2] frosting (sometimes called "cooked roux" frosting). It has a distinctive fluffy texture owing to the gas-producing reaction of alkaline buttermilk with acidic vinegar and/or acidic non-alkalized cocoa.[1] The cake is commonly served on Christmas or Valentine's Day. Common modern red velvet cake is made with red dye,[3][4] however the red color was originally due to non-Dutched anthocyanin-rich cocoa.[1]
