It will probably take 1-1/2 boxes. Fill the pan roughly half full & use the rest for cupcakes.
If you are using a 2" deep cake pan you would need 13.5 cups of batter.
It depends on how deep the cake pan is.
For a 12x12x3-inch cake pan, you'll need approximately 9 to 10 cups of cake batter. This is based on the volume of the pan, which is about 432 cubic inches. Depending on the recipe and the density of the batter, adjusting slightly may be necessary, but this amount should fill the pan adequately without overflowing.
A 16x16x2 cake pan has a volume of 512 cubic inches (16 x 16 x 2). Cake batter typically weighs about 0.5 to 0.6 ounces per cubic inch, so the pan can hold approximately 256 to 307 ounces of cake batter. This translates to around 16 to 19 pounds of batter, depending on the specific density of the cake recipe used.

For an 8-inch square cake pan, you typically need about 4 to 5 cups of cake batter, depending on the recipe. This amount allows for a proper rise and ensures the cake bakes evenly without overflowing. It's always a good idea to check the specific recipe you're using, as some may have variations in the required batter volume.
