Yellow Cake Mix

I have spent many an happy hour surfing this site. However I come across yellow cake mix all the time as an ingredient. We, in Australia, do no have yellow cake mix. Can you substitute vanilla cake mix or can anyone tell me how to make it from scratch? Rosemarie

As Usual Kitchen Witch has come to the rescue! One thing though, in the recipes which I have seen you get statements like “top with 1 cup yellow cake mix” does this mean the dry mix or the mix completed.

Unless you are making a “marble” cake, the reserved 1 cup of cake mix would include the eggs, shortening, milk, etc., and then you add your cocoa to make the chocolate batter.

Usually the recipe will say “reserve 1 cup of cake BATTER” when they mean the cake mix, eggs, milk, etc…

Thank you both. I thought that might be the case. Will give it a go and let you know.

Thanks again
