BC here: I find it gives me the most consistant results and it is usually cheapest at the WalMart SuperCenter
I try whatever is cheapest or if I have a coupon for Betty Crocker, but I only buy DH Devil's food cake. I am so NOT a chocolate person and I find this cake perfect!!!!!! I can eat it all by myself!!!
I only use Betty Crocker also. Golden Vanilla for wedding cakes.
i use Aldi brand.. i even have people that request me to use it they like it so much... and its cheap.. 69 cents a box ![]()
Nice question to ask.
Pillsbury for me usually. I always use a name brand though. Tried the store/noname brand and they just don't turn out as well for me.
HAVE A NICE WEEKND YA'LL

I have always been a DH girls but I am going to try a BC and a PB. I think more folks here say BC. We need a poll set up!

When I use cake mixes I use Betty Crocker. I find that they give me consistent results.
I switch around, but I have found I get lots of compliments from BC Triple Chocolate Fudge, without doctoring it. I usually add so much stuff it doesn't seem like it would matter what I used.
To stray from topic a bit, I just tried a Cake Mix Dr. basic butter recipe, and used BC Golden Vanilla. I had trouble though. I made cupcakes, and when you peeled the paper off the cake just fell apart. Totally cooked, but incredibly crumbly. I tried to frost a couple and they tore. So momof4luvscakes, how do they turn out for you? Is it because I doctored them up? Do you use it straight from the box? Or do you add more flour and stuff to it?
I always used DH with the extra egg, pudding and such in it until recently. I used a PB mix and wasn't real happy with it. BC was good. But then I used an Aldi's white cake mix with the extender and it was nice and moist and it raised fantastically. I will try again (different flavor and let you know).
Gosh I'm in the minority. I just went and voted and say that PB isn't liked much. I greatly prefer PB over BC and DH. PB always turns out great for me. I've had so many problems with BC and DH not cooking right and being so crumbly that I rarely buy them. Of course there are certain flavors that I can only get in BC or DH so I buy those, but PB is my staple.
I think a lot just depends on the climate where you live and how your oven cooks and what not. Heck it could even be that certain brands of mix are fresher in the store you shop so they turn out better.
