Re: What Cake Do You Dislike The Most?

I like cake, mostly every kind, and have even bought little cakes at my grocer and their bakery isn't all that good. My least favorite, and I would probably pass it by if that was the only option, is red velvet cake. I just don't care for it and eating that red dye kind of grosses me out.

I would eat that in a hot second.  After you give it a soak in some brandy.  As it is, it looks a little dry.

 

Plus, explain to me why some people put carrots in cake? Makes no sense.  Why not  asparagus or green beans?  Turnips or celery?  Woman Tongue

I agree w/ you about fudge, @Sooner. It just tastes like firm frosting to me!

 

And even though red velvet cakes look very pretty, I don't care for them either.

I especially don't buy it when people say it tastes like chocolate. No, it doesn't.

I swear, if you (me) were blind folded & fed a piece of red velvet cake, you'd be hard pressed to identify a real flavor.

 

ETA: Now, if we were talking about what cake was I most disappointed by, that prize would go to hummingbird cake!

I suppose my expectations were too high because of its name.


@sabatini   I love fudge (and frosting) and your term "firm frosting".  LOL.  Firm frosting sounds yummy to me!

 

I agree about red velvet cake.  I detest it and I, too, would not be able to identify any particular flavor if my eyes were closed.  

 

I also agree that the name "Hummingbird cake" sounds lovely.  I've seen recipes for it and always say I'm going to make one, but never have.  I guess I'll save myself the expense and trouble now!
