The cake looks so pretty with the raspberries! I was inspired by your idea to make a Red Velvet as a sheet cake, but used a recipe using beets instead of food colouring and without the saturated fat to make it a bit healthier and suitable for non dairy/egg eaters. I posted the recipe here with a link and credit to this post for the sheet cake idea http://oaksgrow.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/red-velvet-cake-with-natural-colouring.html Thanks again for the inspiration!

Be ready to double this recipe … it produces a 1″ cake in an 18×12 sheet pan.

Wasn’t that impressed with the flavor of the cake–seems like it needs a tab more cocoa powder.

My 10 yr old daughter wanted to make a vanilla sheet cake. When she saw this recipe she decided to omit the coloring and cocoa and the result was delicious. We baked it a little longer because we used a slightly smaller pan. It made a really nice, dense textured cake.

made this cake for a friend’s birthday (loved it) and it was requested by family at easter…loved it….very impressed with that icing..so easy….I didn’t have white vinegar and used “apple cider” instead…taste was still wonderful…this is now the red velvet cake recipe that I make….the old one is history

I loved the cake but disagreed on the icing. I would do the cream cheese icing hands down.

Made this for Mother’s day as a part of Iambaker’s take on strawberry shortcake- alternating layers of white cake and red velvet cake frosted with cool whip and strawberries. Everyone should make strawberry shortcake this way and I have a new favorite red velvet recipe….wowzers!

Made this for a teacher appreciation luncheon, and got rave reviews. Beautiful, red color!
My sheet pan was apparently a bit smaller than yours, and should’ve baked longer, as the middle stuck when I inverted the cake. Bummer. I’ll probably use a parchment sheet liner next time.
I did use “The Best Frosting I’ve Ever Tasted” & doubled the batch; one & a half recipes would’ve been perfect. Love this frosting, too!
