What cake mixes can I use? How do I "doctor" them up? Thanks!

I used Duncan Hines chocolate Mix. When it came to the liquid I added half the amount required (you can adjust to suit). You want the batter to be thickish and not like a cake mix otherwise it comes out to 'spongy' and won't hold on the sticks. I also tried one vanilla recipe from the booklet that came with the mixer. That was good too. For the sticks to get the finished look I dipped the top part in the chocolate and froze them for a few minutes then stuck them into the balls. Hope this helps. p.s. I've also heard about adding a pudding mix to the cake mix batter but I never tried it.

I used the regular cake mix from store. Red velvet cake mix from Duncan Hines dipped them in chocolate candy melts :)

I used the baby cakes mix first. Then I used the regular cake mix straight out of the box. Didn't water it down, reduce parts of mix. Hope this helps.

Dear BrendaI am not much help here I personally never use cake mixes. I would suggest that you experiment. Use your natural creativity. Anything you can do with a regular cake should would work, just remember to oil the pan liberally and have fun.

Yes, but the instructions are vague and the recipes are brief & useless. Spray the inside of the mold (both halves) with cooking spray. Fill the cups (bottom half, without the holes) about halfway. Put the top half on, it should sort of snap into place. Set it on a cookie sheet and bake it 12-15 minutes at whatever temp your recipe calls for. I think this is really designed to be used with box mixes. When you take it out of the oven, let it cool completely before taking out the cake balls. Otherwise you get steam burns, the things fall apart, and all sorts of bad things happen. Trust me, let them cool. Then you can put your sticks in them and decorate them. 1 box mix fills the mold twice.

I just made a chocolate cake in mine using 1 box of cake mix, it came out great, but, I thinknext time I will use 2 boxes to make it higher. it is a deep pan.

I have used cake mix, corn bread mix, etc. Only use a small amount in machine, then use remainder in oven.

i used trple chocolate cake mix to make bundt cakes for our granddaughter's wedding and they turned out great. i am unsure about brownie mix but expect it would be quite similar. set aside enough to fill a car next time you bake brownies and see how it comes out!!!

I havent used a cake mix in this, but you could probably fill these twice with a cake mix I'd say.

You need a small base for this cake -- maybe a large cracker or cookie or even a cardboard square -- on which to put the cake. Use frosting generously on the bottom and around the cake so it sticks to the base. The cake really looks nice when finished. Hope this helps.

I can't tell you in cups exactly but I can triple (easily) a normal cake recipe without a problem! I love my new mixer...I am a professional couture baker.

I haven't baked two cake mixes together in a 13X9 pan. One cake mix fills it up very nicely. But if you do that, I would put a pan underneath in case it runs over, and then turn the oven down 25 degrees from the suggested temperature. You will also need to add 10-15 minutes to the baking time and then text with a tooth pic to be sure the middle is done. Another signal for doneness is if the cake pulls away from the edges of the pan just a bit.

I made a chocolate cake "mountain" (one full batch of cake batter, similar in size to a cake mix) for the cake board and made the train lemon bundt cake. For some people, half a train car will be plenty and some people will eat an entire car.. Making an extra cake of some kind will be necessary for that many party goers unless you plan on making multiple trains. Good luck and have fun!

Don't recall any recipes. If you spray it with the baker's nonstick spray, and do not overfill them, you should get excellent results. I've made little cornbreads, and cakelets - both from boxed mixes. They were delicious and delightful!

What I did was buy 1 and then I took it to my cake lady and we played around with ideas. She had molds of the cake sizes and we could figure it out from that. Also, doing this, I realized that I wanted 2 layers to have a double band. I think I bought 5 for a 3 tier cake.

I would recommend using one of the recipes from the included cook book or use the one from Betty Crocker cook book. But you could use either mix in a pinch though neither will come out as well as using a recipe.

HI Lori, They are really simple to make and you use them in place of cupcakes. I bake a cake mix on a jelly roll pan lined with parchment paper. then I use one of the push pop to cut out the circle cakes. then you layer cake, frosting, cake, frosting....I sometimes add fruit and sprinkles. and then put on the lid. Ta da....you have a cake pop. They are great to take somewhere because they can't get messed up! They were a big hit at the party!!
