I've tried those. I like them. It's been a while, but I'm sure it tasted just as good, if not better, than the others that don't use butter. It should be fine icon_smile.gif

HTH!

I use them and they are just as tasty.. I add a teaspoon of vanilla with mine to add to it... But it should be delicious for you Fundraiser.. Let us see the finished product!

For best results let the butter set out at room temp until soft works better that way I have found.

I havent seen those in Canada, but I would think they would be better than the oil kind. Oil has no flavour IMHO

I actually prefer them to the oil cakes! I wish I could find them here more often. Only certain chains carry them and I don't shop the overpriced markets (who does?) I think you'll enjoy these cakes.

I use them and l add a tsp of vanilla to mine like helendelk does. I like them, the batter is a little thicker and the cake is nice and moist.

Just used one last night to make a basketball cake. I only used half the butter asked for on the box. The ball instructions said to use half the oil to make a denser cake. Worked like a charm. Tasty good!

I like butter cake, it's heavier than regular cake, a little on the side of pound cake. Yummmm

if you used the butter yellow cake mix, that is the best i have ever tasted. my kids always come home and see cake scraps and ask, "is this the good cake!!??" it's my customers favorite too!! icon_biggrin.gif

I guess I'm the only one who didn't like the mix with a whole stick of butter. It was too heavy on the butter flavor! And I love butter - but I'm sure it's a matter of taste - literally - since most people seem to like it. icon_smile.gif

It's a little heavy on the butter flavor for me too, but that's just my tastebuds. I've found that lots of other people really like it. Like Helendelk and jo_ann, I also add vanilla to the mix.

I made a Duncan Hines Butter Recipe Fudge and it nearly killed me. There was just far too much butter in it for me.

Incidentally, I made a Butter Recipe Yellow sheet cake last night. It's not for me so it doesn't matter. I haven't had any complaints about them from customers, just from myself!
