I have been reading your posts for the last couple of hours, and it all has been really informative and well written. I did want to let you know that for some reason this post doesn’t seem to function in Internet Explorer. On a side note, I was wondering if you desired to swap blogroll links? I hope to hear from you soon!

I just wanted to tell you, I have been SCOURING the internet looking for a wedding cake recipe. The “best” I could find was Betty Crocker’s Silver White cake. I tried my hand at that on Sunday Evening. It baked up white which was what I wanted, but the texture was like cornbread! BLEH!!
So I set out again on a mission, and today I stumbled across your blog. I attempted Millie’s recipe this evening, and it was EVERYTHING a wedding cake is meant to be!!!! I am beside myself. Overcome with joy. The gates of cake heaven have opened up and trumpets arE….trumpeting….I think you get my point. Thank you SO much for sharing!!!!

Oh, my! I so relate! Those roses are impossible! I’d actually be happy with cabbages! Allie wants to take a fondant class- maybe she’ll be better than her mom

Kristen, I just made this cake today for a retirement party- FABULOUS! It has fantastic flavor, very moist, terrific crumb, and rises perfectly even. I baked the batter in 2 -13×9 professional cake pans, filling each 2/3rds full. I do believe this will be my new “go to” recipe for white cake! Thanks so much for posting!

Your cupcakes were adorable, but I’m with you on the whole decorating thing. Personally, I don’t have enough patience to decorate cakes or cupcakes. To do it right, I’d need someone like Millie (or Martha) to hover over my shoulder. I do love to bake though … but I’m more of a cookie, quick bread, muffin kind of gal.

Interesting idea to work outside the box with the box mix as a base. As for the decoration, when it comes down to it taste is all that really matters. .-= Jackie´s last blog ..Porcini Wild Rice =-.

I was just thinking, "that is a really creative shot of the cupcake". Sometimes accidental shots are the best ones. Nice save! And really great that the cleanup was so easy. .-= Nate´s last blog ..Leek and Potato Soup Recipe =-.

Loving your photo a day on flickr! Great photographs! And the cake sounds wonderful, but what did you do with all the extra yolks? .-= Mrs. L´s last blog ..Old and New Cooking Resolutions 2010 =-.

I also took a cake decorating class and while we had great fun making a halloween cake… it is never going to be something I am good at! I just do not have the patience that some people do to make perfect little lines or perfect figurines or whatever… The cupcake looks delicious!

LOL at the cupcake! I figured it was a kiddie accident. Who’d have thought the board would fall over? …though mine does that too from time to time…

My only problem with this recipe is that I don’t have cake mix in Belgium. At least not that I’ve found…

not cabbage – MUMS! How many/sizes of cakes does this make? Cupcakes? Can it be 1/2? From the looks if the ingredients, it looks like it will… just curious!
Thanks for everything you share – I love it all!
