Hi!
My mom, got me GOLD MEDAL 5 Pound box cake mix at a specialty store in New York (she got me WHite and Devils food) I haven't used them yet, I was just wondering if anyone has ever used this brand before and if they did the same substitutions as the regular box mixes call for...

This box mix says "just add water" nothing else needed. I am a little skeptical, but will be trying it this weekend on family... " the poor guinie pigs >LOL!

If no one has heard of this - I'll post with my findings!

Never heard of it. Please share.

I haven't heard of that one bu I do know that CK is coming out with cake mixes. I tried one at our DOS and it wasn't bad.

I read something about that recently on here. Maybe you can PM leahs. I think she knew something about it...could be wrong but I think it was her. You can also do a search on it.

I just baked the first cake with it, it baked up very nicely!! The only problem, was a problem I created, (I must not have had enough cake release on a small portion of the pan, because the cake got a "little" stuck and pulled away from the cake ( I am pretty sure I can fix it though)

I used these Substitutions and will share after sunday how it tastes:

4.5 cups of mix
2 cups of milk
3 eggs
1 stick of butter (no salt)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract
3 heaping tablespoons of sour cream
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp lemon juice (the combination of the baking powder and lemon juice make the cake melt in your mouth)


mix and bake... I bake until the cake springs back in the middle (not by specific times)
The cake mix is WHITE GOLD MEDAL and smells soo good!

This cake was very tastey! Everyone loved it and I had 1 piece left over for my husband to try!

How large a cake did this make ?

I used 4.5 cups of mix and it made a very fluffy 8 inch round Picture of a similar cake in my pictures (the one that says Happy Birthday MiMi)

I buy the mix from amazon and bake wedding cake with it and  i love it !! but next time am going try yours substitute recipe.
