me too! I wonder if you can use butter instead of shortening if you keep it refrigerated? Not that making a cake from scratch is that difficult, but doing all the 'grunt' work ahead of time is always a bonus!

I miss risquebusiness!

using the pudding and extra egg - was it stackable and good for sculpting?

when adding instant pudding do you also add water?

i've never added pudding, probably because i only do SCRATCH cakes and NEVER mixes - so i am unfamiliary with it

thanks in advance!

My cupcakes are in the oven!

I added 2 boxes of vanilla pudding to the entire base mix and I also added an extra egg and some plain yogurt to the batter. We'll see in about 20 min if they turned out!

They turned out really well. I think next time I will add more pudding to the master mix to keep it more moist.

I still prefer my original doctored mix, but it wasn't bad. I think with a few minor tweeks it will do really well.

Thanks for sharing! This looks great - just wondering if anyone has substituted cake flour for the all purpose.

you can use cake flour cup for cup PLUS two tablespoons. so, if it calls for one cup all purpose, you'll use one cup and two tablespoons cake flour.

Hi, I'm a newbie to this forum and I can't wait to make myself a big batch of this mix to try! Thank you for sharing it! I have a question...I've been reading a lot about adding flavored creamers for lots of yummy flavors - has anyone tried using creamer with this mix? If so, how much did you use, liquid or powder, etc?

Thanks so much!

risquebusiness isn't here anymore.

Baking in different sized pans may require a heating core or bake even strips so the center bakes evenly, especialy lareger sizes. But the baking temp would most likely stay at about 325
