These cake mixes were given to me and since I’ve never used no name mixes before I thought why not. Now these cakes are like pancakes which tells me that they may not have been stored properly and all the oof has gone out. Also i added an extra egg so it might have weighted it down a bit. I have never had this problem before with other cake mixes. Also it’s a new tin so I may not have greased the sides enough. I think I’ll just make trifle out of the rest. I agree with you that it’s easy to make from scratch. I’m not really into cake I’m more of a slice girl.
