MrsMissey, do you use this in chocolate cake too? Does it affect the chocolate taste?

Dream whip is a powdered non dairy whipped topping that you can purchase, add milk and make yourself. You just dump the dry packet in with your cake mix. I usually buy the Kroger brand, because it's much cheaper.

MrsMissy, you don't use any oil/butter at all, even if the mix calls for it?

I use the dream pudding cake that I got off this site. I love it, I use it with all different flavors of cake mix and puddings.

1 box of cake mix any flavor
1 package of dream whip
1 box of instant pudding any flavor
3 eggs
1/4 c oil
1 cup of water

Mix on high of 4-6 minutes

It bakes up fluffy.

I also substitute 1/3 c of rum for some of the water to make a rum cake.
Very Yummy!

Great!

Thanks for not making me feel stupid. I'm going to try it tonight for my niece's birthday cake.

I just baked my first cake using Deam Whip the other day. I didn't notice a height difference in the sheet cake. Do you have to beat it for a longer period of time to get the height difference?

I am going to taste the cake here in a little bit, I'll let y'all know how it taste.

I've always baked cakes with Dream Whip. I use the same recipe as Mrs. Missey: 4 eggs, 1 packet of Dream Whip, 1 cup of water and any brand/flavor of boxed cake mix. I'm a DH fan. But use other brands also.
I always mix it on medium (speed 4 on KitchenAide Pro mixer) for at least 5 minutes.

Mrs. Missey: do you like this recipe as much as the one on this site for the cake extender? I was looking in to trying that one I've never had any complaints with taste, firmness or flavor with this one - just thinking about trying other ideas.

I honestly prefer the Dream Whip recipe! I just love the way it bakes up!

Thanks!!
(I didn't notice how old this post was)
Me too! Not really into the flour, sugar, etc. stuff . Was just thinking about trying it - it's rained here for 2 days now. Bit of cabin fever I think!

I used Dream Whip in my wedding cakes I did 20 years ago.I never use yellow cake mix cause it is to sweet. I use whole eggs when call for egg whites in white cake.
I also used pkg of Dream Whip in my icing until I discovered I could use dry coffee creamabout about 1/4 cup) cheaper
I havn't been decorating cakes for about 15 years, I still bake cakes.
I am itching to get back into it now that I am retired have the time.

I read a post and someone mentioned sifting the cake mix. So I tried it and could tell a big difference in the texture on my last cake. I will be doing this forever now.

I made a cake two weeks ago and added a package of Dream whip. I agree it was too sweet for me.; however, everyone loved it. It was the moist cake that I have every made. I think I will try it again but maybe half the package.

I also use one package of dreamwhip, and everyone loves it! Never had a complaint yet!

I will be trying this recipe in a couple days. It sounds yummy!

I always use Dream Whip in my cakes - Same as Mrs. Missey. It is on the Dream Whip box (Dream Cake). I, too, sift my cake mix and people think it's a scratch cake!

Just made this and it is yummy! I think its will becomemy main cake. Thanks

It's the only way I make cake! I don't bake from scratch (too much variation in end product for me), but I have been asked if my cake was scratch when tasted!
