Decorating By racechick311x Updated 1 Jul 2009 , 5:26pm by racechick311x
For some reason my cakes are all of a sudden not rising and when I cut into them they are not fluffy and are dense! I use box mix and hand wisk and I have not changed anything in my process. Please any help is appreciate ASAP, this is for a 4 tier wedding cake and a 2 tier bday cake for this weekend and I am starting to freak out! It happended on 2 8inch and a 12 inch cake today!
Murphy's Law is in full effect here! This wouldn't happen if you were just playing around!
You can try adding meringue powder to your mix. The recommendation was on the insert in the can (which I've tossed), but I've added 1 tbsp/mix. It makes it fluffier/airier in my experience.
Have your ingredients changed at all? Different water, etc? Grasping at straws here.
I would try using a mixer this time. It might mix more air in.
My students always blame the weather when something goes wrong. Not sure how much stock I put in that, though.
Good luck!

It sounds odd but try using bottled water. When I first started making cakes I often made cakes at the homes of family members for specific events and often the water had an affect. They may be plumbing new lines somewhere in your neighborhood or doing local maintenance. But the meringue is also a good idea. Good luck I hope it works out or you.
