Best Answer

A commercial size 1/2 sheet cake pan (2 inches tall) will hold approx. 12 cups of batter.

A cake mix can make approx. 4 -- 5 cups of cake batter, although it can vary by 1/2 cup or more depending on how big your eggs are, as well as how long you mix the batter and at what speed.

When I bake them, I make 3 boxes. Fill the pan 2/3 full. You'll have a little batter left over. I usually use this to bake a small (6 or 8 inch) cake to throw in the freezer for a rainy day.

Use the number of eggs the box mix calls for; you don't need to adjust ingredients when changing pan sizes. You may need to adjust cooking time, though.

The number each mix calls for. If each mix calls for 2 you would use 4. Same with the water and oil.

The cake will not turn out properly baked. It will be fairly dry and not hold together very well.

It depends on the cake mix, that varies, but I'd say no less than 4.

How do you change a boxed cake recipe for different size cake pans for instancea teired cake?

You really don't need to change the recipe. The only thing I would suggest is baking the cake with duck eggs (if you can find them) instead of chicken eggs because they make the cake hold better. They make the cake less crumbly or unstable. Hope this helps. :)

Who ate cake in the colonies?

In colonial times, cake was a scare item. It cost a lot to gather all of the needed ingredients and bake a cake. Usually, cakes were only used for important celebrations.

What can you use in an apple cake recipe when it calls for 3 eggs and you only have 2?

In an apple cake recipe, it probably would not make much difference if you were to only use two eggs instead of three. If you are concerned, add a tablespoon of mayonnaise for the last egg. In many, many recipies a tablespoon of mayonnaise can be substituted for an egg without any difference in taste.
