You never know when you might need a box of cake mix in order to whip up a quick batch of cupcakes, right?!? Well that's what I always tell myself when I stock up on cake mix that's on sale.

You never know when you might need a box of cake mix in order to whip up a quick batch of cupcakes, right?!? Well that’s what I always tell myself when I stock up on cake mix that’s on sale. Here are 50 WAYS TO USE CAKE MIX!

Sure, I try to make most of our food from scratch but heavens knows sometimes I just don’t have time or I just want to dump cake mix, eggs and oil into a bowl and have batter. 😉

While I was cleaning out our pantry the other day I ran across like 5 boxes of cake mix that I had squirreled away into the back of the pantry for cake/cupcake emergencies. I’m not one to just bake a cake (or cupcakes) and have it sitting around the house so I was trying to come up with other uses for those forgotten boxes of cake mix! Now there isn’t anything wrong with baking a cake “just because”, but if it’s there I’m going to want to eat it so I’d much rather just bake to bake and then send the goodies off with BigBear to work.

I’m not much into plain boxed cake and icing anyways so I’ve rounded up 50  Ways to Use Cake Mix! 50 ways OTHER than just making a cake topped with icing, that is!

Now I know some of you don’t like using boxed cake mix and that’s fine. 🙂 If you don’t want to use boxed cake mixes here are a Homemade Cake Mixes that you might like!

I love the Farmer’s Market and Farm to Table meals but I’m also not ashamed to use canned vegetables and baking mixes. It’s all about balance! I’m so glad y’all are here!
