It is a red cake that I remember had a whole thing of red food coloring in it.
Just an interesting note! Paula Dean was Grand Marshall for the Rose Parade in Pasadena, Ca, yesterday!

Here is the tricky part. I remember the icing had 1 cup of crisco and coconut.
I know it sounds weird but it was wonderful.

Arty1- Thanks for the recipe- I once had that icing recipe, and have looked for it over and over (in my messy recipe collection), and am so glad to see it! It was the best icing I ever had at the time- Think I'll make a box cake and try it out again! (Heck with all that red food coloring!)

I've made this recipe for Red Velvet Cake since 1964 & its one of my favorites but follow directions closely.
Red Velvet Cake
Cream together 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1/2 cup shortening. Cream about 5 - 10 minutes. Add 2 whole eggs, two 1/2 oz. bottles red food coloring & 1 tsp. vanilla.
In another bowl sift together: 1/2 tsp. salt, 2 Tbsp. cocoa, 2 cups flour. Add a little at a time to the creamed mixture, alternately with 1 cup buttermilk..
Mix in 1 tsp. baking soda & 2 Tbsp. vinegar (This causes a reaction that's fun to watch)
Divide into 3 greased & floured round cake pans (I also line the bottom with waxed paper).
Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.
Icing: 1 1/2 cups milk 1/4 cup flour
Cook until a paste forms. Remove from heat & let cool.
Cream together 1 cup granualted sugar, 1 cup shortening.
Add 1 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Add this mixture to the paste mixture, beating until smooth.
Frost cake & sprinle sides & top with coconut.
