Sounds Yummy! What kind of icing do you use for this cake?
tried this recipe everyone loved it
WHAT KIND OF ICING/FILLING DO YOU RECOMEND? IS EXTRACT THE SAME AS FLAVORINGS?
Is this dense enough to be stacked?
I've used this recipe twice. There is a recipe for a coconut filling made with marshmallows and it's super yummy. EVERYONE asks for this cake (with that filling) even if they don't like pina colada or coconut (like me and my son!!) :) Thanks for this!!
Oh. The only thing I change is, I always add 1 cup of self rising flour, 1 extra egg, and a 1/4- 1/2 of whatever the other ingredient is (water, oil, butter, etc.) I do this to all my cake box recipes. It makes them a little less sweet and adds to the batter. :)
I misread the recipe, but it still came out pretty dang good.
What kind of icing do you use on this??
is it stackable? how can I make it dense enough?
