SMALLER BOXES OF CAKE MIXES

‎11-09-2012 02:27 PM

Since they reduced the size of boxed cake mixes, it has been throwing me how much more cake mix to add to bring it up to the old 18.25 oz that most recipes call for. I called Pillsbury and she was VERY helpful and took the time to research dry measurements for me. Hope this helps someone else figure out about how much more dry cake mix to add for your recipe.

DRY CAKE MIX MEASUREMENTS

FOR RECIPES CALLING FOR OLD SIZE OF 18.25 OZ.

5 1/3 TABLESPOONS DRY CAKE MIX =

1/3 CUP = 2.6 OZ


8 TABLESPOONS =

½ CUP = 4 OZ.

So I guess if we have a box with the new 15.25 oz, we are short 3 oz. That would be somewhere between the 1/3 cup (2.6 oz) and 1/2 cup (4 oz)! It's alot closer than I was before! LOL
