Piece of Cake

As you may already know, I am on Christmas Break.  My family and I didn’t have much planned for today and so I decided to bake a cake.  It wasn’t just any cake that I planned on making, I was going to make a Gluten-Free Red Velvet Cake.  Some of my readers may be aware that “gluten-free” food often has a unique taste to it.  For some individuals “gluten-free” is synonymous with s gross or “tastes like cardboard.”  I’ll admit that many gluten-free products have an interesting flavor that requires the eater to become accustomed to it.  Despite these factors against my cake I opted to make one anyways.

A couple hours later my cake had cooled and I tried a piece of it before making the frosting.  Well, my GF cake didn’t disappoint… or maybe I should say that it did.  Apparently it is too dry  I’m not really sure what went wrong.  I followed the directions, but maybe that was the problem.  Now I’m stuck with a gluten free red velvet cake that no one will want to eat… except for me.

The moral of the story is this:  I don’t know.

I suppose that the next time I attempt to make a GF red velvet cake I should use a different recipe.
