ULTIMATE CAKE MIX

This cake is super moist, dense enough to hold up to stacking, has a wonderful crumb for wedding cake and is so versatile

The *Original* WASC Cake Recipe

Adapted From @kakeladi: CakeCentral and Baking-a-Moment with Allie
WASC stands for White Almond Sour Cream. 
The WASC recipe was based on box mixes being 18.2 oz.  Yeilds 7 Cups Batter Approximately

Ingredients

  • 1 box cake mix (I prefer Betty Crocker)
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • generous dash of salt
  • 1 cup sour cream*
  • 1 cup water *
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 1 tablespoon flavoring*

Instructions

  1. In bowl mix together dry ingredients. It’s helpful to use a wire whisk; important w/choco cake not so much for other flavors.
  2. In mixer bowl place next 4 ingredients. Add about 1/2 of the dry ingredients and blend together, then add the rest of the dry ingredients & blend. Mix for 2 minutes.
  3. Pour into prepared pans * and bake as usual.

NOTES: *ANY* cake flavor can be used. Some tell me they just dump all ingredients into the bowl together others say they sift all dry ingredients together. 

*** A “Part” is any measure be it teaspoon; tablespoon; cup or quart - Since I made many wedding cakes I usually mixed it up by the cup:)





  • Match the flavoring to the cake flavor such use lemon/almond mix for lemon cake; strawberry for a strawberry cake etc, etc. For most flavors you can use a mixture of vanilla, butter, and almond which is what I do most of the time.
  • You can use milk, juice, thawed frozen concentrates, soda pop (ie: Coke) cream or just about anything wet for the liquid.
  • *NOTES: This recipe is based on mixing in a kitchenaid mixer. I use position #1 to stir it, then #4 to mix the batter.
  • This makes the amount of batter as if you used 1 1/2 mixes and is perfect for a 10″ sq or 9×13 or one 8″ & two 6″ round; or two 8″rounds or a 12″ round; and other combinations of pans.

  • I prefer to bake at 300 degrees for about 20-30 minutes (depending on size of cake) then turn oven up to 325 for about an equal time. If cake has pulled away from sides it is overbaked. After cooling, the top might be a bit sticky.

    Original Flavoring Added:

      1 part vanilla extract
      1/2 part butter flavoring
      1/4 part almond flavoring

    Pillsbury Lemon Cake Mix.

      1 teaspoon vanilla
      1 Tablespoon lemon

    Orange Version

    Instead of water, try using orange juice and 1/2 pack of orange jello.

    Marble Version

    Instead of 1 cup of water I tried 1 cup of liquid creamer and Duncan Hines Fudge Marble cake mix.
