Re: Bread - 1 flop, 1 success, cake help, and 1 great dinner recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi!

The chocolate cake mix from Miss Roben's is *WONDERFUL*! I made it for my son's

birthday party yesterday and people were raving about how good it was even

before I told them it was GFCF. (When they found out it was GFCF, they were

really excited about it!) The cake came out moist and tasty and, seriously,

exactly like regular wheat cake. I also made a yellow cake mix from Miss

Roben's, but it didn't turn out as well. Not sure if I did something different,

but although it tasted OK, you could definitely tell it was " different. "

To give you an idea of how much the mixes yield, I made 24 mini-cupcakes

(because my son prefers these) from each mix and had enough batter to make one

layer each from the mixes. I had a silly cake with one chocolate layer and one

yellow layer, in keeping with the party spirit. <g> I made the frosting recipe

that was posted on the list recently, which turned out very good and was easy to

make. (I'll send you the recipe privately if you don't want to search the

archives.)

Best wishes,

Third, my sons birthday is coming up in 3 weeks and I

have to make a birthday cake. After my experience

with the bread I am scared to death of not making

something that " everyone " finds great tasting. I

ordered a package of the chocolate cake mix from Miss

Robens but after reading the package I decided it

wouldnt be large enough. I also am concerned about

the taste, after the bread flop. Anyone have

experience with this, or know of a cake recipe or mix

that is an absolute definate great tasting cake? I

have several food critics in my family.

This has been our experience also. The mix makes a nice cake (8x8) for the

candles plus 12 cupcakes.

And I have yet to have the Wunderbread come out for me either!

a,

No, it wasnt your recipe it was someone elses. I was

wondering if it was a typo. THe bread is actually

very tasty so I am not complaining. Next time I will

try it in one and see how it tastes.
