Big Red Cake Recipe

This Big Red Cake is unlike other traditional cakes due to its creamy vanilla and bubble gum flavour of ‘Big Red Soda’. Moreover, its evident red colour makes it novel and appealing. The incorporation of soda into the batter keeps the cake moist. You can bake the cake in layers form, cupcakes, or sheet cakes according to formal and informal occasions.
