Years ago a neighbor brought my mother a Red Velvet Cake. It was
intensely red, so I assume her recipe contained little, if any, cocoa or
chocolate. It was kinda pretty, but it was very bland.

I baked one several years after that from what was supposed to be an
"authentic" recipe. It contained cocoa, but not a lot. I think I was
still expecting it to be quite red. It was not, and that was
disappointing. Even the flavor of that cake was not impressive.
