Packaged cake mixes can turn rancid after the due date, and before the due date if they're not properly stored. They need to be in a cool, dark area.

Can old dried raisins and currents be used to make cakes?

Quite honestly, if you are going to the trouble to make a cake, it is better to make sure that the ingredients for the cake are as fresh as possible (and certainly within their use by date). If you use old fruit the cake will not taste as good as it should do and it may even taste bad (especially with old, rancid nuts).

How do you know when dry cake mix has expired?

Commercially packaged cake mix stays safe to eat long after its expiration date has passed -- up to 12-18 months. It's loaded with preservatives and uses dry milk and egg solids, so it isn't going to go "bad" for a long time. As long as the plastic pouch is unbroken it will taste fine.

Can leavening be added to an out dated cake mix?

Manufacturers are require to put dates on products, but just because something is past the expiration date does not mean it is spoiled, especially dry, boxed products. You can use an outdated cake mix, but it may have lost color, flavor, and nutritional value. It is unlikely to be harmful. Check the mix for signs of mold or insects. If it looks and smells okay it is most likely safe to use.
