Question Re. Directions For A Bulk Cake Mix
Decorating By 2muchsugar Updated 11 Aug 2008 , 12:23am by PollyMaggs
I normally bake scratch cakes. However, I recently purchased a 50 lb. bag of cake mix from Dawn Foods. Can someone tell me how to read the directions? I know this sounds simple, but it lists 3 "stages" with different amounts of mix and water. I'm not clear on what the stages are...do they refer to commercial mixer sizes? I have a 6 qt. Kitchen Aid and need to convert to a smaller batch.
Can anyone that has used these products before help? THANKS!
I am not familiar with the bulk instructions. However, I would take the smallest measurements and divide it down from there. Cut it in half as many times as it takes to "fit" your mixer capacity.
Thanks, but I have tried contacting them without success. I really like their products, but their customer service definitely leaves something to be desired. I'm at my wit's end
Thanks for the suggestions....anyone else use Dawn Food products?
I might be completely off, but from what I remember from my time at the bakery I used to work at, the three stages listed are 3 different ways that the cake cake be made. Stage 1 may be a recipe made with oil, 2 may just be water, etc.
Like I said though, I could be off

This company sells all Dawn cake batters in the 50 lb bags and if you click on the product you have, it gives the recipe for a regular 2 layer 8" cake. The company is dutch valley foods. If thats not what you need they have an e-mail addy for product info questions.
Hope this helps.
