Notes

Store the Red Velvet Bundt Cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate for up to a week. Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing. Be careful not to overmix the batter; mix just until smooth. Greasing the bundt pan thoroughly will help the cake come out easily. Use a toothpick to check for doneness; it should come out clean but not dry.
