"Read Budget Savvy Diva's post on How to Get Box Cake to Taste Homemade! ( pinned to our Desserts board on pinterest)
Read your instructions and add one more egg, two if you want it more rich. For the next step you use melted butter instead of oil and twice as much. Ditch the water and use milk! Finally mix and bake, it really is a huge difference that you’ll be able to tell by the first bite."
WTF?
So, you buy an expensive boxed cake mix. Which contains sugar, flour and flavourings. Then, because it tastes like crap, you add more ingredients to it, to try to get that home-made taste.
WHAT AM I MISSING HERE?
Why not just, oh I dunno....BAKE A CAKE????
I saw that on Facebook this morning and paused to think exactly the same thing. Why would you want to use a boxed cake mix anyway? The home made version is just as quick and 300 times better!
ReplyDeleteI've been given lots of reasons why people use boxed cake mix, and of course as I always say, it's none of my business. But THIS? This is just crazy.
