Details

Quickly and easily whip up a dense, succulent devil's food cake and save time baking it from scratch with this 5 lb. cake mix! Providing all the ingredients you need, this mix makes baking easy, while still offering a homemade taste. Just add water, mix, and bake!

Invented in the United States in the early 20th century, devil's food cake is the chocolate-flavored counterpart to the light and airy, white angel food cake. It is generally lighter and more succulent than other chocolate cakes, and is closely tied to red velvet cake, without its signature red food coloring. Made with cocoa powder, its robust chocolate flavor suits any chocolate lover's tastes!

This mix rises nicely for cupcakes and fluffy sheet cakes with soft, moist texture. Decorate your baked goods with a fruit glaze or rich chocolate frosting, and top with chocolate shavings, decorative icing, chocolate chips, and more. Whichever way this versatile cake mix is prepared and served, you're sure to satisfy everyone's sweet tooth!

This cake mix is pretty good. It's a little on the dry side unless you add other ingredients to moisten it. I would recommend for large quantity.

This was probably the most dense cake I've ever made. I tried mixing longer, mixing less, adding baking powder, adding baking soda, adding both baking powder and baking soda, ginger ale instead of water, baking at a higher temperature, baking at a lower temperature... No matter what I did, it always came out incredibly dense. The flavor is a mild vanilla, perfect for fixing up to meet specific cake needs, but it is just soooo dense.

This cake mix is aweful. It wasn't dense but it has a very "box" mix taste....it's almost flavorless except for that taste. The color varies from the edge to the center drastically which is why I'm guessing they pictured it with the edges cut. I could never serve this. Now I'm stuck with 5 more bags and my kids won't even eat it. SAVE YOUR MONEY...would never buy this product again.

Mix was a little flat. I had to add eggs to get desired constancy of sponge layer. Mix was priced right just not the quality I desired.

Who doesn't love a good yellow cake with chocolate icing. We have quite a few request for a good yellow cake, it also makes a beautiful Lemon Cake which our customers swoon over.

This chocolate cake mix is much better than the name brand sold in Dollar Stores. It's not as sweet and didn't make me feel bad after consumption. It's a great carbohydrate source and taste great. I highly recommend this chocolate cake mix.

Cake bakes up very dense. Not great tasting. Will not buy again

Thank you for the review Monique. We’re sorry this cake mix has not worked well for you. For an alternative that might better meet your needs, try this Krusteaz white cake mix instead!

This cake mix is a bit dry and flavorless, but works for us well because we cover it and ice cream! I add a little oil to the mix to help with the dryness.

Do not purchase this product. This is the worst and I mean by far the worst cake mix ever created it is dense no matter what you try to do it is not even edible. I tried reaching out to the company and they were so rude about it to have this many bad reviews and not improve or pull the product is absolutely ridiculous.

I wish I had read the reviews before buying this item. I bought it because of the exotic name "Devil's Food Cake", and it really turned out to be cake for the devil. I had to add more ingredients and coloring to make the mix tasteful and attractive. Will definitely not buy it again.

I love this five pound cake mix. I make cakes and cookies and they are delicious. I actually make my cookie dough and freeze the cookie dough. I later unthaw my cookie dough and make my cookies as I need them.

Terrible texture! does not taste anything like Pillsbury or Betty Crocker, etc. It is heavier, fake vanilla flavor, rougher texture, corn bread feel, just not good at all. I would never ever purchase again. I am donating the mix to food bank cause my name is not going on this stuff. I should have known but they did not offer name brands for cake mix sale. This stuff is sub par.

We weren’t a huge fan of this product but I bet if someone had a good sense of what to flavor it with they would have better luck. It taste bland and has a very dense texture.
