The cake slice was even larger than I anticipated. <\/p>\n<h3>How is it?<\/h3>\n<p>I love red velvet, but I&#8217;ve always felt it&#8217;s something people either really like or don&#8217;t like. So as someone who adores it, this loaf cake was pretty darn good. On first bite I made sure to get the vanilla, red velvet, and icing all in one, and the red velvet was definitely the most flavorful. It was rich without being too sweet. I also appreciated the denseness of the loaf cake. But I will say the density makes it more of a dessert than a quick snack.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Starbucks-Red-Velvet-Loaf-Cake-Icing.jpg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Starbucks Red Velvet Loaf Cake Icing\" title=\"Starbucks Red Velvet Loaf Cake Icing.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s talk about the white chocolate icing: A thin layer with nice flavor. I do wish there was more &#8211; my husband and I agreed we wish the icing-to-cake ratio was the same in every bite. <\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>I would have a beverage on hand, because the loaf cake was just a teeny bit dry (hence my 8 out of 10 rating). Not enough for me to make a stink about it, but I was hoping it would be super moist. The red velvet portions of the cake were more moist than the vanilla. (Side note: My apologies for using the word moist. I know people dislike that almost as much as red velvet.)<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>I would definitely order again &#8211; this was a nice treat that paired well with my latte for my afternoon pick-me-up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $2.95<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> N\/A<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 8 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> 370 calories, 16 grams of total fat, 8 grams of saturated fat, 0.5 grams of trans fat, 90 milligrams of cholesterol, 470 milligrams of sodium, 51 grams of total carbohydrates, 1 grams of dietary fiber, 29 grams of total sugars, and 5 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the Starbucks Red Velvet Loaf Cake?
