I'm not sure if this is a disaster yet but I'm not sure where else it would fall under.. Anyways I'm baking a strawberry cake; add the ingredients in the mixing bow and I don't know how I read the box wrong but I put in 1 cup of oil instead of 2/3 (using 2 box mixes so I doubled it)
Is this going to be OK? has anyone done anything like this or have any thoughts? Will it screw the taste up? This sucks lol
Thanks !
Well, I always put 1/2 of oil to each box... even if it calls for less oil. I always get a very moist cake and love it... If i plan to carve it in some way, I make sure to freeze the cake a couple of hours.
So if your are baking 2 mixes, I think you'll be fine.
It's only 1/3 cup more oil. You should be fine.
When I do a butter cake I awlays add extra butter for a moister cake and never have a problem.
It will make it just a bit moister. I also add a touch extra oil. It won't change the tastes or consistency since it wasn't a huge amount extra.
Ha ha ha. I am also baking a strawberry cake this morning and did the EXACT same thing. Mine was butter so I just scoopped a little out.
So funny...Are you blonde too!?!?!?!?
you will definately be fine!!!! i would agree with lilica if you are going to carve make sure to freeze it for a while!!! good luck!!!!!!
Those box cakes are resilient little beasts lol Thats why I love them so much. I cant tell you all the things I have done to them, and have never had one turn out bad.
You guys are the best!! Thanks soo much! I am happy to report that everything came out A-OK! I would have hated to bake another batch.
luelue1971 - hahah that's soo funny we did the same thing, at least yours was easier to take out! I admit I am a blonde to haha
