Not an armadillo

Chris-Dec.1970

A friend called yesterday to ask if had a good red velvet cake recipe. Well, since that is oxymoron, I had to send her to allrecipes.com and ask her if she remembered the armadillo cake from "Steel Magnolias." Gross, just gross. (See below for a mind-blowing reproduction.)

I also could have sworn that the cake from my second birthday was a red velvet cake. I was sure of it until I found this picture showing the cut cake. The (probably toxic) red food coloring never made it past the icing, I guess. It looks like I enjoyed it. I never met a cake I didn't like, except red velvet.
