This is the easy way to take a box of strawberry cake mix and make it taste like scratch! Box cake contains emulsifiers and preservatives that help it rise up, stay moist and make it fool-proof for beginner bakers but it can also leave an artificial taste in your mouth. Adding these simple ingredients to a strawberry box mix is the easiest way to make a strawberry cake that tastes like homemade.

Love the fact that you take box mix and make it into an amazing and delicious cake! Great idea

@tyijarrett4165 4 года назад

This recipe is AMAZING! I made it for a friend's birthday and she loved it!

@j4012 Год назад

Cake turned out moist and good strong strawberry flavor. It rose a lot and it came out great. I made some cupcakes as well (cupcakes bake in about 15 minutes or so- do the toothpick test). It’s for my daughters 4th birthday (her request for strawberry cake) Didn’t have time to make a cake from scratch because of having a baby boy to take care of as well. This recipe was great and it was so easy- just throw everything together in one bowl and mix for 2 minutes. The only time consuming thing for me was the strawberry sauce but you can also do that a day or two in advance. Thanks for the recipe. So helpful and tasted like homemade cake.

Liz, I just made this cake! Delicious!! I made a strawberry cream cheese frosting instead of the lemon. Thank you for the recipe!

@luvnlane3438 4 года назад

If you are making this recipe and making it in cupcake form, although i cooked them at 350 as she suggested i found that cooking them for 30mins is too long and caused them to come out hard, dark (brown, smelling burnt and very dense but that 20mins is perfect as they came out soft, a beautiful pink, fluffy and smelled delicious! Just a tip from my experience =)

@autumnweaver6616 3 года назад

@marblessed9597 3 года назад

@cathysotelo8299 2 года назад

Yes! Cupcakes usually bake between 15-20 mins MAX

If you cook that long, definitely drop the temp to 325.

So I literally just made this cake--cake is so moist and has a great strawberry flavor--BUT--- USE STRAWBERRY EMULSION--NOT EXTRACT!! I USED LorAnn super strength strawberry flavor and it has a terrible weird after taste. I am experimenting for a October wedding cake and the bride wants strawberry!! Glad I am taste testing!!

@biancanicole4219 4 года назад

Hi do you have to add the strawberry puree? Or is their alternative ??

@SugarGeekShow 4 года назад

Bianca Nicole I think some people have tried using strawberry preserves instead. But you do need something to get the extra strawberry flavor. Just remove about 1/4 cup of the sugar if you do use preserves.

@umairrrkhannn 4 года назад

Hi, if we don’t have a strawberry box mix, what can we add to substitute it

@robinrowe8025 Год назад

Only thing I didn't have was the sour cream . I'm not for sure that's the reason mine fell . I seen another person's cup cakes did the same thing . And I didn't case it to fall I stayed out of the kitchen until it was done . The strawberry frosting I added a cup of whipped cream and chop up thawed strawberries .

@camilynn_b7097 4 года назад

Hello sugar geek, box cake mixes are already sweet. Why is there a need to add additional sugar in the doctored version?? Thx

@samhugh4965 3 года назад

Because she added extra ingredients to the cake mix.

@mariaconsuelothomen Год назад

Can you also add one small package of gelatin or strawberry pudding? Or would that make the cake taste chemical?

Cynthia Goodard You probably could but you'd need to take some of the sugar out of the recipe to account for the sugar in the jam/preserves. Maybe 1/4 cup or so

@xofiori 3 года назад

Would 2 minutes of mixing cause it to become overmixed? Or is different because it uses cake mix? Would mixing the wet ingredients first and then adding the dry ones after be better? Sorry, I’m confused hahaa

@averyshenan958 2 года назад

Yes my aunt the chef lol she said never over mix I wouldn’t ever mix that for two minutes

This look delish! But fresh strawberries all the wayyyy💃🏻 I have a question!! I really need an answer to, ive seen ppl use SO MUCH sprinkles!!! Aint they hard to eat? Specially the balls?

@aleialaw 4 года назад

Nope...they aren't super hard. Just like a candy.

@depen963 4 года назад

It depends on the consistency of the frosting. If it is quite wet, like cream, it softens the sprinkles, if you use butter cream, iit doesnt soften up too much. I personally am very annoyed, wenn I accidently bite into a hard sprinkle unexpected. Hurts yout teeth... :D

@sanyaarora8945 4 года назад

HW 1979 exactlyyy my concernnnn! It might hurt ur tooth!

@janettmead2055 4 года назад

I recently made a galaxy birthday cake for my granddaughter using the round ball sprinkles and they were hard. The kids were even picking them off their cake. They are cute to decorate with, but next time I will use them sparingly.

@farfan8427 4 года назад

Did you used the same amount for all the 3 layers? Or 1 box for the all the 3 layers?

Farfan 1 box for all the layers

I tried this except with cupcakes. I'm not sure why but several of my cupcakes puffed up like a souffle and then fell. They tasted good and I was able to save most of them and pipe some cute frosting on.

@mattbeidleman6799 4 года назад

What’s the point of using a box cake mix if you’re going to add all the other ingredients of a normal cake anyway?

@SugarGeekShow 4 года назад

I'll answer you with the same answer as above. I went to pastry school and made everything from scratch. But since I have started teaching, I realize that some people just need a little stepping stone between box mix and completely from scratch for a variety of reasons. To some, box mix is all they know and all their palette is used to. So making a doctored box mix taste a little more like scratch helps them see beyond just the box. It's also full proof. As you know, making a cake from scratch requires very careful measuring and mixing. Beginners who only know how to put a box mix in a bowl get discouraged by difficult measuring. Box mix also has emulsifiers that help the cake rise pretty much no matter what. So the successful cake gives the beginner a boost of confidence. Once they see they can make something like a doctored box mix, they move onto baking from scratch more easily. I know this is a long answer but I wanted to let you know I get it and there is a method behind my madness :)

@mattbeidleman6799 4 года назад

Sugar Geek Show gotcha that makes sense!
