A buffer absorbs or releases excess hydrogen ions, making the solution hold at a steady pH. Since red cabbage indicator makes a good pH indicator, it has a neutral pH. any amount of acids or bases added would change the pH of the red cabbage juices. If it made a good buffer, it would not make a good pH indicator.
