Does anyone know the quantity that the WASC recipe will make? (http://www.cakecentral.com/cake_recipe-2322-White-Almond-Sour-Cream-Cake.html) I see the pan sizes at the bottom of the recipe, but are these 2" or 3" pans?? I would really like to know the cups ![]()
How much it makes will depend on what cake mix brand/flavor you use. The different mixes make different amounts. BC and Phils. is about 4-5 cups of batter. DH is 5-6 cups of batter, again depending on the flavor.
I believe the WASC recipe will give you around 7-8 cups of batter, depending on the mix.
Most will use this recipe to make a 2in tall 13x9, if that helps give you an idea of the amount of batter.
Each flavor of mix makes a different amount of batter but for the most part rises the same amount so one cake mix (any flavor/brand) will be enough batter to fill one 10"x2" round pan or one 8"x2" square.
The pans mentioned in the WASC recipe are 2" deep.
Oh - oops. Sorry - my mixer can only handle half a batch at a time, which to me is "one" batch since it uses 1 box of cake mix. I consider the recipe to actually yield a double batch. So the regular "full" recipe would be 14 - 16 c of batter.
Good catch havingfun!
Opps, I forget it was a double recipe as well. I usually use the extender recipe which is close to the (single batch) WASC so I was just thinking about it.
for me using one BC mix makes 8 cup of batter, 41 cup cakes everytime.
The WASC recipe using DH white cake mix yields a tad over 14 cups of batter. (The perfect amount for a 12x18x2 pan.)
Here's an expanded flavors version of the WASC recipe:

Here are all four Wilton cake preparation & serving charts:

These charts give the batter amounts required by size (2 or 3" pans), baking time & temperatures and servings by pan size.

Thank you everyone!! That makes it a LOT easier to calculate ingredients. I do love this recipe, but have not made a large cake (multi tiered) in awhile, and any "extras" I had previously, I just made little 6" cakes for the freezer. I love having those on hand for that impromptu dinner or cookout - they are perfect for a small gathering. They are great with fresh fruit also!
