Having seen a recent post regarding Pillsbury mix being available in bulk, I contacted Duncan Hines to inquire about the same. I was told that 50 lb bags of Duncan Hines will become available the 3rd week of August, in Classic Yellow, Classic White and Chocolate (Devils Food I believe).
As this is a new roll-out, a seperate help desk/customer service department for bulk sales will be handling inquiries in the future. However, they would love any interested bakers to contact them at 1-800-362-9834 (Option #2, then #4) and provide your contact info/email, so they can contact you in the near future regarding how/where to purchase their bulk products. They also asked what other flavors I would like to purchase in bulk, so they can track it for future offerings.
I must say, they were the most pleasant customer service department I've spoken to in a while! So friendly and accommodating!
Would be better if they also included Fr. Van and their Dk. Choc Fudge cakes. I don't use Devil's food or classic white, but I do use the yellow cake.
by bulk do you mean by the case of 12 or just in a bigger bag because ive found a website that sells them in a case of 12.. and they have most all the flavors..

Ouch... to buy them by the case that way would certainly not be a savings for me. I can get each mix at WalMart for $1.24...and local grocery chain for $1.69. The cost for the case is over $3 a piece not including shipping..

Same here...I did the math from the bulk pricing on the attached link and my mouth dropped open!! No savings for me!!
For kicks I did the math including the shipping... $4 a piece.. but I would love it if they came up with 50 lb bags that were a savings! 
i agree that website is expensive and i is cheaper to buy them one at a time from walmart.
50lb bags would b great.. even 25lb bags.. but they have to sale redvelvet in bulk because thats my best seller.
