Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Cake

In a mixing bowl, whisk 3 large eggs with 120 grams (1/2 cup) sugar for about 10 minutes until the mixture triples in volume.

Sift together 110 grams (1 cup) all-purpose flour, 15 grams (2 tablespoons) cocoa powder, and 10 grams (2 teaspoons) baking powder.

In another bowl, combine 65 grams (1/4 cup) milk, 45 grams (3 tablespoons) vegetable oil, and 2 tablespoons red food coloring. Mix until smooth.

Gradually add the milk mixture to the egg mixture and gently fold with a silicone spatula until fully combined.

In three stages, incorporate the sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture, folding gently from top to bottom. Pour the batter into a prepared baking pan.

Bake at 165-170°C (329-338°F) for 35-40 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick – it should come out clean.

Once baked, immediately invert the sponge onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 2

Make the Cherry Sauce

In a saucepan, combine 100 grams (3.5 ounces) cherries and 50 grams (1/4 cup) sugar. Bring to a boil and then puree with a blender until smooth.

Dissolve 10 grams (1 tablespoon) cornstarch in 20 grams (1 tablespoon) water and pour this into the cherry mixture, stirring continuously until it thickens.

Prepare the gelatin by mixing 2 grams (1/2 teaspoon) gelatin with 12 grams (1 tablespoon) water and follow the package instructions. Stir it into the cherry sauce and mix well.

Step 3

Prepare the Cherry Mousse

In a saucepan, heat 70 grams (2.5 ounces) cherries with 35 grams (3 tablespoons) sugar until boiling, then remove from heat and blend until pureed.

Prepare gelatin in the same manner as before with 3 grams (1 teaspoon) gelatin and 18 grams (1.5 tablespoons) water. Mix the gelatin into the cherry puree until well combined.

Whip 150 grams (2/3 cup) heavy cream and 70 grams (2.5 ounces) cream cheese together until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Fold in the cherry mixture and whip for another minute, until combined.

Step 4

Make the Cream Cheese Frosting

In a mixing bowl, combine 400 grams (14 ounces) cream cheese, 200 grams (7 ounces) heavy cream, and 70 grams (1/3 cup) sugar. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Assemble the Cake

Once the cake is completely cool, slice it horizontally if desired. Layer the cherry mousse and cream cheese frosting in between the cake layers. Top with the cherry sauce and any additional decorations as preferred.

Chill the assembled cake in the fridge for a few hours to set before serving. Enjoy your delicious Red Velvet Cake!

Variations

If you're looking to cater to different dietary needs, try these **gluten-free** and **vegan** twists on the classic Red Velvet Cake:

🌾 **Gluten-Free Option**: Simply swap all-purpose flour with a gluten-free baking blend. Make sure it’s a 1:1 substitute to maintain the texture and structure.

🌱 **Vegan Delight**: For a vegan version, use flax eggs (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 2.5 tablespoons of water = 1 egg) for the eggs in the recipe. Replace dairy milk with almond or soy milk and use a plant-based cream cheese alternative.

By making these tweaks, you can enjoy the lusciousness of Red Velvet Cake without compromising on your dietary preferences!
