What is WASC Cake and how is it made.......thanks

It's the white almond sour cream cake in the recipe section. There are also many variations of it like chocolate, strawberry. orange, lemon--etc.

IT'S a REALLY good cake.

just had to back up that the WASC cake is sooooooooo good. Everyone I've made it for loves it!

Ditto.......yum!

I have made this cake 3 or 4 times in the last month, everyone says that it is the best cake they have every had!! I have used it with a raspberry cream, strawberry, and cookies and cream filling and all were a hit! It is also, so easy to make.
You have to try it.

is this cake good for stacking - like wedding cakes?
also is it a good cake to use for carving as is for 3d shaped cakes?

will it go good with buttercream? I want to try this, may use it for 200 cupcakes that I have to make for a Cupcake Tower (Quinceanera) Sept. 1st.

i think i may have messed this up somehow. i made it and it did not rise at all and it tasted like playdoh as an aftertaste.

Any ideas?

Does the cake have a strong almond taste? I've always wanted to try it, but am not a big fan of almond flavoring.

Susie, you can substitute the almond in it with other flavors. That's what I do.

I've used it to make stacked cakes, Babycakes.

I've also used it to make cupcakes, Briansbaker.

I made this cake w/o the almond, and I did not like it. swingme83 you hit the nail on the head with that one!! I could not get that taste out of my mouth for an hour! Sorry, that is just my taste buds' opinion.

Just substitute the almond for a bit more vanilla if you are not a fan of almond.

This is a wonderful cake but I don't like the almond either. I just double up on the vanilla. Next time, I will try adding white chocolate.

I haven't experimented it with it yet ... but I've made the original recipe a handful of times and get RAVE reviews about it!

Ive made it a few times now and people just love it. It's always moist.

Babycakes99 it is good for wedding cakes. I did the bottom tier of a wedding cake a couple of weeks ago with the WASC cake, with another cake stacked on top. I don't think the almond flavor is that strong, but I agree that you can substitute it with other flavors. Also, this cake cuts very nicely.

the WASC cake is so good that you can make it with any flavoring. I love almond, but I've made it with just vanilla, coconut, rum, irish cream and creme de cacao. Everyone loves it!

thank you so much....I can't wait to try it.......it sounds so yummy.......

Actually a bride has requested this cake and I weas woundering if any body knows how well it will stay in the freezer. She wants to save the topper for her one year Wedding Anniversary.

Expanded flavors WASC cake recipe:

(Use different flavored extracts, or cakes mixes, use liquor/liqueur, berry or lemon juice, add strawberries/raspberries, white chocolate and more.)

Just wondering if anybody can help me with what the actual "white cake" is? In australia we have sponge, butter, maderia cakes and I can't find a "White Cake" to purchase?
I would love to try this recipe but am having trouble defining the "white cake".

Thanks

I haven't tried the recipe, but hopefully, this will give you an idea of what it is, and see if it's similar to recipes you may already have.


Hope this helps,
