What are cakes used for?

Answer 1

Because the leavening agent has expired, you can't use the mix for anything which needs to "rise." But, unless the cake mix is full of weevils, or contains oil (and smells "off"), I can't see any reason you can't use it as "flour" - say for a crust or a crumb topping. Mix with butter/oleomargarine as you would for any crumb topping/crust. Add a bit of fresh flavouring - e.g. vanilla, almond or lemon extract, cocoa powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, or whatever suits your needs. Most cake mixes have sweetening, but taste the crumbs and see if you want to add more.

Answer 2

You can make trifle, by layering the crumbled cake with fruit and pudding. Add flavor by drizzling the cake pieces with fruit syrup or any liqueur and topping with whipped cream.

You can also MASH the crumbled cake with melted chocolate or jam, butter and powdered sugar, then shape into balls. Roll these "truffles" in powdered sugar, cocoa or ground nuts and chill.

Answer 3

Old/stale cake is the perfect base for rum balls. Plenty of Bakeries i have worked in use this recycling method.

Answer 4

Make cupcakes. If not, refridgerate until cold and experiment with the deep fryer by coating fruit with it and deep frying until done. Otherwise, freeze for up to 2 weeks.
