Hi everybody, I got the wondermold and I want to make the doll cake for my God daughter's second b'day in two weeks time.

As I'm a scratch baker I don't know how much batter to make. Should I make batter as for an 8" cake or a 9" cake? Can someone help me please?

TIA.

I usually make 1 box cake mix and am a little short so........not sure if that is any good information for you but it should gauge it a bit.

Hi Sarah, thanks for that, but I don't use box mixes. So I don't much about it.

Thanks anyway.

HI, I am also a scratch mix baker as well. I usually do 1 1/2 of the regular recipe. 1 box equals about 6 cups of batter and I think it's similar to what a regular scratch recipe makes. HTH

Hi Bashini,
It depends on what recipe you are using and how big the mold is. If you are doing a madeira recipe for instance, you will need slightly more batter, if its's a sponge recipe you will need less. To be on the safe side, use the batter for a 9inch round.

When I did my doll cake, I used enough for a 9" cake and had the exact amount. HTH

Oh thank you all for the quick replies. Ok then, 9" cake batter it is then.

Thanks again to all of you!
