i know it calls for using a pound cake for the 3d bear pan, but has anyone had any luck with just using a yellow DH box mix, without making it into a pound cake?

I've never made it with anything but straight box mix, no add ins, in either chocolate, marble or yellow.

I use the Duncan Hines pound cake recipe for all of my cakes. I find that it works especially well with the Wilton 3D pans like the bear and duck.

1 pkg Duncan Hines® Moist Deluxe® Classic Yellow Cake Mix (or any other DH Mix)
1 (3.4 oz) pkg vanilla instant pudding and pie filling (or any other instant pudding flavor that compliments the flavor of the cake mix used)
4 large eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil

I've never been let down by this recipe.

I just make my second bear cake today, and I just add the cake mix extender recipe (on this site) to my box mix. It works great and tastes wonderful!
