But recently a friend asked for recommendations and I was stumped.
I had never paid close attention to brand names, prices, or whether Id like the baked cake.
So I set out to figure out which boxed cake mix reigns supreme.
Chocolate was a close second, but I stuck to taste-testing vanilla only.
When you want cake, who can wait 5 to 7 business days for shipping?
Both of the gluten-free options yielded smaller cakes.
Each baked one 9-inch round cakethe classic cake mixes yield two 9-inch round cakes.
They agreed with the promise of wine and time for the kids to jump on the trampoline afterwards.
I think its less about aesthetics and more about fairnessthey want everyones slices to be exactly the same size.

Neither crumbled nor cracked when cut, giving us perfectly shaped squares straight out of the cake pans.
That’s why Betty Crocker is the clear winner.

Nothing a heavy hand of frosting cant fix!
