Silver Cake with Pink Frosting

By Jessie Sheehan

I encountered many recipes for this cake, often with slight variations on the name—Silver Sea Foam Loaf, Penny-Wise Silver Cake, and Silver White Cake.

Made this twice and believe me, this recipe makes the best red velvet cake/cupcakes ever. The cake was super moist, fluffy and sweetness was at perfection. Red velvet cake can not get any better than this. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Nigella. We loved it.
