I have made wedding cakes for 25+ yrs using boxed cake mix. If it's o.k. for a wedding cake it certainly o.k. for a sheet cake.
Word to the wise: Be very sure you have a sturdy board to put that cake on. It is going to be *very* heavy! Best is a piece of wood. Next best is 3-4 cake cardboards glued together.

Same here.
Your mama made layer cakes using cake mixes for years and they held up just fine, right?
Yes, it's a larger cake, but the weight is being spread out over a larger area. The weight-per-square-inch on an 18x24 is the same as a 6x6".

Quick little bit of info, I always use Duncan Hines mixes and add 1/2 box of pudding mix per cake mix. Fresh! Happy baking!
