Red Velvet Cake Balls

December 21, 2008 · WCC Administr@tr · 7 Comments

This is such a common recipe among fellow food bloggers these days. I had some leftover Red Velvet Cake that my friend Jen brought us a few days ago and made these Red Velvet Cake Balls to use it up and share.

The recipe for this is rather easy and can be easily found on a slew of other blogs in greater detail, but I thought it would be interesting to provide a link to a New York Times article that outlines the popularity, legends and the history of Red Velvet Cake.

    A cool way to deal with leftover cake. Too bad we never have any!

    Mmm I love red velvet cake and thanks for posting that link. I just can’t wrap my head around beets in some of those recipes though! 😉

    you finally made them. Once you make them, you can’t go back. Yours look beautiful. I made one of your sugar cookie recipes that Kelly loved. It’s a keeper here.

    Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.

    The text in your post seem to be running off the screen in Ie.
    I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
    The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon.
    Kudos
