A classic red velvet celebration cake
This cake is rich without being heavy. The cocoa sponge brings gentle chocolate notes, buttermilk gives it softness, and cream cheese frosting adds the tangy finish red velvet is known for.
How it’s finished
The cake is finished with a red velvet crumb pressed around the sides, cream cheese frosting and a white chocolate tuile on top. The colour gives it away before the first slice.
Handmade in Port Melbourne
Each Red Velvet Cake is made in-house at Melbourne Bakehouse on Bay Street in Port Melbourne. It suits birthdays, anniversaries, office celebrations and dessert tables where you want a cake with colour and classic appeal.

How to serve Red Velvet Cake
Keep refrigerated, then let the cake sit at room temperature for around 15 minutes before serving so the cream cheese frosting softens. Cut with a hot dry knife for clean slices.
