Can anyone please tell me how many boxes of Duncan Hines cake mixes I would need to make the pound cake version for a 14" square cake, 4 inches high?
Thanks so much for your reply.

This is a chart that I use and it's pretty good, I usually add one extra cake mix just cause I like to make sure I'm going to get the height i like... I believe The average boxed mix has 4.5 cups prepared so just devide the # of cups by 4.5 and your set. icon_smile.gif
