I normally use White Chocolate Cook and Serve Pudding and I cannot find it anywhere. Has anyone ever used Instant? I'm new at this and I need to bake a wedding cake soon, if not instant what have all of y'all been using. Thanks for your help!

I only use instant, thought that was what everyone else used, maybe I'm doing it wrong?????

get lots of comments on how moist my cakes are though.

do you mean pudding for the filling or in the actual cake mix?

I would say that you could use instant for either. I've really only used it in the cake mix, but I'm sure it would be fine as a filling too thumbs_up.gif

I use it in my cake mixes with one extra egg. You know I might have used instant White Chocolate and thought I had cook and serve. I just went on the Jello web and there is no White Chocolate listed in the cook and serve. Thanks for all your comments as it's nice to know what everyone else uses. Have a great weekend!

I would say instant...I have a choc chip cookie recipe that uses instant pudding. I was giving cooking lessons to a client, and she accidentally bought cook n serve instead of instant. We used it anyway, and they cookies were very, very flat. I would think that it would have similar results with a cake.

I used cook and serve by accident for a cake and there was no difference in the way it baked. I normally use instant for enhanced cakes and mousse fillings.
