I am trying to find a yellow or white cake recipe that will be sturdy enough to carve a puppy shape out of it.... I have never carved a cake so I need something that will withstand my amateur-ness! icon_smile.gif Thanks!

Maybe try bobwonderbuns suggestion using a different cake mix other than duncan hines? The recipe he suggested is really a good one. Just a thought thumbs_up.gif .
