White Almond Sour Cream Cake....omg!
Decorating By karenm0712 Updated 9 Mar 2007 , 2:21am by jamiesue
yummmyy, that sounds so good!! but anyway, i was wondering if any knows if instead of regular white cake box mix if i could substitute it for the angel food cake mix? would it make it lighter?
Hey Tolinda I am not sure about making it lighter. I think it would make it more dense. And don't know if it would raise like an angel food cake is suppose to. This is just my opinion and I don't know for sure what it would do.
Someone asked about pudding in the batter. I have added pudding each time I've made the cake and they've turned out wonderfully.
I would ask for opinions on this, though - I've been asked to do a Key Lime cake for a friend of mine for her anniversary (they had a key lime cake for their wedding cake). I thought I would tweak this recipe by adding key lime juice and then making a key lime curd for the filling. Any other thoughts, suggestions??

I filled cupcakes for the first time last we. I made the White Almond Sour Cream recipe and it came out great.
I made an Orange curd and filled the cupcakes. I put a BC damn around the edge and poured a chocolate ganache over the top.
They were delicious, and fun.
I just made this cake and seperated the batter to try different flavors. I just made cupcakes for people to try, got great reviews.
I added coconut extract instead of almond and flaked coconut.
I also made a spice cake and omitted the almond and added cinammon, nutmeg and cloves. YUM!
Ooohhhhh, I can't wait to try this cake, filling combos recommended here. thanks to all!
Well.
I made this cake for my in-law's 25th anniversary. I used the recipe for strawberry cream filling from the CC site as well.
SO GOOD.
My husband said it was one of the best cakes he has ever tasted. I have to agree. It was just delicious. I will definately make it again.
MeghanB - Hey, how are you?
I made this cake over the weekend for my dad's birthday and made homemade raspberry filling. It also was one of my best tasting cakes. Yummy!
From what I can see this is basically the same recipe as using the cake mix extender other than adding the almond flavoring. I have not tried this recipe as yet but use the extender all the time. I also don't understand the need of putting pudding in the cake. If it is really good like it is, why the pudding?
I'm thankful that someone pointed out the use of the almond extract for those allergic to nuts. I had never thought about that. I use it in my BC all the time.
The next cake I do I will use this recipe. I printed it long ago and just haven't tried it.

mmichelew, I have only one question.................will you send me a piece of THAT cake??? Please??????? Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
Ok I went ahead and tried it with my other recipe. I haven't tasted the cake yet. But tasted the extra cupcakes I made with the batter. They taste ok. They are even more dense than the original WASC recipe. I am going to decorate the cake tonight fo DH for Valentines day. So we will know tomorrow how the actual cake turned out. Like I said though it seems extremely dense.
I just made this cake tonight and tried an extra cupcake I had... I found it to be okay. A little disappointed, thought it would have been better from all the ravs it was getting from all of you. It seems to be the same as the extender recipe, which I like. Maybe once I get filling and frosting on, it might be better.

That's what I said--it's just like the extender recipe. I had a lady ask me tonight what kind of cake I used in her grandson's cake for his birthday (that darn Spiderman I hated so much). Wanted to know if it was a secret recipe. I told her it was such top secret that only the Pillsbury Doughboy and I know what it is. Told her it was a Pillsbury mix with the extender and explained what was in the extender.

WARNING!!!WARNING!!!!!!
The creator of the WASC cake failed to mention that if you bake it with your windows open,your home will be attacked by wild animals!!! In my case squirrels the size of cats!![/b]
holy cow
Did you give them a sample?
No worry here. It's too darn cold to have my windows open! Maybe you should have made them a cake of their own. Squirrels need a little attention once in a while.............

I tried this recipe with a red velvet cake mix yesterday; hands down the best red velvet cake I have made to date. I added 1/2 oz red food coloring to the batter in a half recipe. I think this is the best so far. When I treid the chocolate version I was not impressed, not chocolate enough for me. But this and the white are great!
Lord have mercy, my house smells so good from baking this cake. I've only tried the batter so far, and YUM!!! I've got a homemade raspberry filling chilling and the cake in the freezer. Can't wait to try it tomorrow.
OMG Destini.....that's a huge squirrel! Great photo.
I was absolutely terrified when taking it,but no one believed me when I said the squirrels were attacking the house. So I had to get a picture.
I use this recipe all the time. I have used different cake mix flavors with it and it tasts great!
I know this is an old thread, but I was going to try this cake for my sister's b-day (someone wants an almond flavored cake for a baby shower, so sis is my guinea pig). It does look like the cake mix extender. When I have used the extender I found the cake to have something weird about it. Not sure if it is the texture (maybe gummy although cake was fully cooked) or the taste was maybe floury or maybe both.
Anyone else have this problem, and would it be the same with the WASC?
I think the WASC and the extender are basically the same thing although I have not tried the WASC yet. I have really good luck with the extender and have gotten more compliments on my cakes when I use it. Several times I have used 2 mixes and 1 extender and it was great.
