No white vinegar is not the same as white wine vinegar. What are you using it for?

I checked out substitutions and found this: (Can you get apple cider vinegar?)

VINEGAR, white 1/4 cup (60 ml) =1/4 cup (60 ml) apple cider vinegar + 1/3 cup (80 ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice

try red wine vinegar. It's what the girls on D.C. cupcakes says they use in their red velvet. They gave out that on their 1st show. Don't know any more of their tips because I couldn't stand to watch it again.

Regular white vinegar is usually around the mayonaise in large bottles. You might also check the cleaning supplies area of your super market. I'm not sure waht would be more common in Scotland. I love the idea of the red wine vinegar for red velvet. Smart girls!
To get a true red it takes a whole lot of food coloring...just tell everyone you made pink velvet cupcakesicon_smile.gif

yes, the bright red color from red velvet cake that people make now is from food color, it used to be from a chemical reaction but not nearly as bright as you would see people selling now. I use regular white vinegar and add about 2 tbsp red food color per batch of batter... but I did see the DC cupcakes episode about them using red wine vinegar....I'll test it out one day to see if it makes a difference in taste.

Malt vinegar is fine - it adds to the depth of flavour !
