How many boxes of cake mix required for a 10 inch round cake pan?

Answer 1

1 mix will go in 2 pans, the cakes will just be thinner and will bake in less time. You could use 2 mixes in 3 pans and have thicker than normal layers with a slightly longer baking time.

How to be certain:

I believe one cake mix will fill one 10" round nicely. But you can test this for yourself, so you know exactly how much your particular pan requires.

Look on the cake mix box, for the recommended pan size. It probably suggests a 9" x 13" pan. Take a 9" x 13" and measure the number of cups of water needed to fill the pan to the brim. Then measure your 10" round in the same way. If both pans hold close to the same amount of water, then both would hold the same cake mix. On the other hand, if the amount of water needed to fill the 9" x 13" pan only filled the 10" round halfway, then you would know that you need 2 mixes to fill the 10" pan.

Answer 2

A standard cake mix yields about 5 cups of batter, and a 12x2 inch cake pan takes 8 cups of batter. If your pan is 3 inches deep instead of 2, you will need 11 cups. So two cake mixes will be about right...you'll have a bit left over with a 12x2.

Answer 3

I just made a strawberry cake roll yesterday, and my Duncan Hines box made 2 rolls, I did discover, at least with the strawberry, that perhaps you'll want to add an extra egg or 2, this should add some springiness to the cake so that they won't crack when you roll them up. Be sure to generously grease and flour your roll pan, or use parchment paper to keep the rolls from sticking when you turn them out. Good luck.

Answer 4

9 in. round pans are most commonly used when making cakes. According to Betty Crocker's cake mix, the package is enough for one 13x9x2 in pan, two 8" rounds, two 9" rounds, 24 cupcakes or one 12 cup fluted tub (bundt pan).

Answer 5

Not all boxes of cake mix are the same. You will have to read the box to find the correct one for your needs.

Your 'six inch pan' is unclear. If it's a six inch round or square, that's really small for a cake pan. Is it a loaf pan, or is the six inch measurement a depth. Standard round and square cake pans are usually 9" to 10" in diameter or across. Loaf pans can be a standard size (as a loaf of bread) or mini loaf pans. Pans that are rectangular are usually called sheet cake pans but would have to be measured. A six inch deep pan would be a specialty, non standard pan. You will have to measure the diameter or length and width of your pan and compare it to the directions on cake mix boxes.

Answer 6

9X12 or 11X13 takes one box of cake mix for each layer.

Answer 7

1 for a thin cake. 2 for an ULTRA thick cake. And about 1 and 1/4 for the perfect amout! (:
