I have made this cake with much positive feedback.
great cake
I love this with a white or french vanilla mix, but not with chocolate. While it tasted good, the texture was off for me.
I was really unsure about this recipe when the woman who made my wedding cake showed it to me but I remember how good my cake was and decited to take it for a test run and omg I couldnt be happier, this is seriously the only recipe I will use when it comes to white cake, I am trying it today with a chocolate cake just as a test run for a German Chocolate Cake I will be making next month to see if its suitable to use, Will post an update
K update as promised, I made the recipe using chocolate cake and I hate to say it but it was awful, no flavor and just totally off, I still love the vanilla and keep boxes of cake mix in my pantry just to make this cake last min.
I absolutely LOVE this cake recipe. It is my go-to recipe and has NEVER failed me. I've made it with white, coconut, pineapple, and butter box mixes and all have turned out delicious. Thank you!!
I made this cake over the weekend and everyone actually LOVED it!!!! Thx =)
I have used this recipe for years now, and the chocolate version is just as good. I add a half cup cocoa powder to the recipe.
would this work for a bundt cake, or would it be too much batter?
Made this recipe yesterday. Delicious!Sturdy,Very Moist! I will be using this recipe for my grandsons wedding cake.And it baked beautifully. Use 2 eight inch pans for 25 mins. Baked nice and level too. Thank You!
