Thanks for watching! You guys, after making this video, I made some other tests and finally found something that worked best and was for sure the egg replacement with the most delicious result. You can watch the video here: ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html
Have you tried any other egg replacements to veganize a box cake? What's worked for you?
I use seltzer water ! So it’s a bit more diet friendly also no oil no eggs just cake mix and seltzer water it’s the same concept as the cake mix and soda idea . It comes out a little moister like it falls apart easier but it’s really not bad at all even without the eggs as a binder it’s a pretty great hack I’ve come to love , my mom loves cake and she’s not vegan or on a diet she’s one of those 120 stick People that can eat whatever they want . All she eats is junk food and she loves it too so if I’m really craving cake that’s how I make it but I tend to find icing too sweet with the already sweet cake mix so I do a strawberry shortcake type of vibe with the seltzer cake , fresh strawberries on top and vegan whipped cream (my fave vegan whipped cream is the oat milk whipped cream sprouts farmers market store brand .
Thank you so much that’s very nice of you to share your talent with us. Your channel inspired me to learn and grow as a fellow cooking creator! I’d love to continue to learn from one another. Much success to you in 2022! I love cake mix hacks!
if you want to make the cake a little more firm, just add little less liquid. Basically they ask you to add more water so that there's "more cake" at the end. Even when I made the betty crocker mix WITH eggs I'd still reduce the liquid slightly so the cake wasn't so crumbly. This is good for if you're planning to ice the cake, especially with kids.
This makes a lot of sense to me. Since eggs are typically added for structure and as a leavening. Nice experiment!
The egg is what holds it together, in addition to helping it rise. Since I have become a vegan some of the substitutes are: bananas, using 1/2 a banana is about equivalent to 1egg; applesauce, about 1/2 cup, equivalent to about 1 egg; buttermilk you can make by adding a teaspoon of vinegar (apple cider), to your vegan milk; flax or chia seed 2 tablespoons per egg + again 2 tablespoons of water, & letting it sit for about 10-15 minutes. Good luck, with your egg substitutes!
I'm vegan and I make all kinds of cakes and I never use eggs. I make them for many family members and they say the cake was great and not dry. Look up vegan cakes and see.
Thank you!!
I am a vegan baker also (hence my handle😊) and have definitely tried all of these methods you mentioned, tried and true. Depending on what you want to bake, there is a vegan “egg” for everything.😊
@@theloveleebakerHave you ever made a pound cake? Trying to find the best substitute for that. Also, have you ever used the WASC recipe that takes (3) eggs? Any input what I can use successfully in that?
Thank you ❤
I do this all the time. To make it firm put it in the freezer for about 10 min. That will make it firm. Sometimes I use sparkling water.
My son is allergic to eggs. We found a fun recipe for him that uses Chocolate cake mix and 1 can of root beer. Just mix and bake. He LOVES it!
Thank you for this video . I will try this recipe.
I make them just like the box says except without eggs. Doesn't rise as much but comes out super moist and yummy. Don't need the eggs.
Do you think I’d I add yogurt it’ll taste alright?
I am going to buy some boxed cake to donate to the food pantry and I will mark on each box that eggs are not required! Thanks for the test!
I love that! So my actual best result was with soda water! I tried that a few weeks ago on this video: HOW TO MAKE A BOX CAKE WITHOUT EGGS Part 3: The BEST way to make a box cake vegan w egg replacements
ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html
Lol, what a super idea🤗 It's especially nice around holidays when boxed mixes are SOOO CHEAP👍
After a year you probably won't see this - but I'm from England and haven't seen 'box cakes' but we do have packets of 'sponge mix' that you just add water and 1 egg to - wondering if the same thing. Great video thanks for sharing - and thanks to the person who suggested this hack to you.
It is the same and you can get Betty Crooker and many other brands and varieties there too not just "sponge mix".
Unsweetened apple sauce works great I place of egg for vegan chocolate chip cookies I wonder how it would work as an egg substitute for cake I know you can replace some of the oil for applesauce I wonder if it could be for the egg
Hi my grandson can’t have eggs and he always wants cake. I always made him the cake from black bottom cup cakes. But he wants vanilla cake for Christmas, I found this video and I made it. I was so excited that it worked he will love this. And I’m so happy I could give him this gift for Christmas. You have to let it cool. Thank you 🙏 ❤
Glad I could help! I actually did another test in this video ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html and it worked out even better so you might want to do this next time! Oh, and check out the video I did with the boxed brownie too for a chocolate cake (that was seriously the best discovery so far!)
@@CuriousCatBakery I will try it thank you so much. Merry Christmas and a Beautiful New Year !💕
Hi, my grandson loved the cake and I made it for him again for New Year dinner. Thank you again ! ❤
3/4 of a can of Spindrift sparkling water!!! comes out super fluffy!
just that to the box of cake mix!
2 ingredients in original moon pies from box, Gelatin and Palm oil, along w others, but gelatin, or even jello or jam can bind
You can make a light and fluffy cake using a box mix. The box cake mix and 12ounces of soda or juice. No eggs, oil or water.
Oh my God thank you so much for making this video
I use one can of pumpkin only to an apple spice cake mix, comes out great!!!
Alrighhht😍🍰 Now 5:04am I did this "recipe"😁 I only had half cup veg oil, so did another 1/2 melted coconut oil... I had some pb, peanuts, n butter( i know🙄) and caramel sauce...soaked peanuts in melted butter and threw them on top O'Cake 30 mins in... melted pb and mixed w meltrd butter... topping🤤 GIRRRL!!! A little crumbly.. but I didnt wait... lit a candle, threw on some hawaii videos... Cake almost half gone... FULLY Satisfied😍🍫🥜🍰 Thanks Girl!!!!💃🏾🔥🔥🔥💐🏆💐
LOL you know, sometimes an ugly cake still does the trick so I'm glad the crumbly cake still was good enough to enjoy! I had a better experience with soda water on boxed cake. It truly was by far the best results I've gotten so far. So for next time, check this one out: ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html
Right now I use Bob Red Mill's egg replacer since I have a food sensitivity to it
I have ALWAYS used either applesauce or chia egg when I bake. 1/4 cup of applesauce equals 1 egg. OR 1 Tablespoon ground chia (use your grinder) plus 3 Tablespoons of water and left for 5-10 minutes will gel and replace 1 egg.
I discovered a very decent box cake replacement for the eggs and the oil its a can of coca cola. it may not be the healthiest replacement but then oil and eggs are not healthy either. i use the dunkin heinz mixes that are accidentally vegan and add a can or cocacola 10 oz and they come out fine.
I used carnation milk. Oil. Water and it was amazing
Interesting, I will have to try this, with these egg prices it's crazy. I tried soda/pop but it comes out crumbly for me, sour cream it was ok .
We started experimenting with this because my niece is allergic to eggs. I do a combination of things. Add potato starch as binder so it is less crumbly. I like potato starch rather than other starches because it gelatinizes at a lower temp, so it is sure to be done without overcooking. Add extra baking powder for more rise but adding too much will make the cake dry and less tender. I use yogurt instead of milk for a thicker batter that retains moisture, not sure if a vegan yogurt will have the same effect. If I was going with a vegan milk I think oatmilk would be the best option. Mix the dry ingredients with the liquid and fat and beat as per instructions. Fold in whipped aquafaba for lightness. Adding a small amount of sugar and cream of tarter to the aquafaba before mixing will help stabilize it. You'll get better results cooking the cake in thinner layers, so bake it in two round cake pans, or even three. Using insulated pans helps to keep it from getting too brown/dry/tough on the bottom and edges, and it cooks more evenly to avoid doming up in the middle. This is especially important if you have to cook it longer to get a proper toothpick test. For frosting you can do a whipped coconut cream. I'm going to be trying a whipped ganache using coconut cream instead of dairy cream and am hoping that will work out as well. I like to fill between the layers with fruit or jam spread. Something I haven't tried yet is using a pudding cake mix/recipe without the potato starch addition, because pudding has binders of it's own. Some people may think if you're going to add all that, why not just start from scratch? But a boxed cake has some special ingredients and is processed in a way that is hard to beat, which is why it will make something passable just like in the vid. Making these additions helps it enough to be even more like a regular cake.
This just ends up being more complicated than making a cake from scratch lol.
@@WhyUA-camWhy Have you had to make a cake from scratch without eggs? It's not simple to obtain a product identical to a typical birthday cake. Maybe you would be happy with a tough doughy result but I'm fine with putting in a little extra effort to achieve a superior result, and it really isn't that much more complicated for anyone who isn't a simpleton. "lol"🤪
I cup buttermilk or curd is a very good replacement
When I tell you I've tried everything like you..the best thing I used was baking powder and water..but I'm fixing to make a butter pecan cake and have no eggs... we'll see how this goes!!
Baking powder comes out too fishy tasting
Hi i am starting my small home bakery and i want it to be vegan !! Thanks for your video what can we add to get the extra structure?
I attempted today with Bobs Red Mill egg replacer + extra all purpose flour & it came out beautiful. I only did 1/4 of the box but for a whole box it would be 3 tbsps of the egg replacer and 1/4 cup flour (maybe more flour it may just need a hair more structure.
That's awesome! how much cake did you get out of 1/4 of a box?
1/4 a box yielded 5 cupcakes so itd probably be 20 for a whole box? I’m not a mathematician or scientist unfortunately haha 😅
@@alysagrimsley That makes sense! I never thought of doing just part of the box but it makes total sense that it would work!
Did you just add the egg replacer power and extra water to the mix? Or make the egg replacer separate and add that to the mixture?
@@jaspicuz2150 I always make the egg replacer mixture separate then add it to the recipe. It might work the other way but I’ve never tried myself 😅
Can I do the same thing without eggs for the muffin mix
Not vegan just a food allergy mom, I have tried apple sauce, flax seed and yogurt. I'm glad to know I can make it without eggs or egg replacer
I am an allergy mom too glad I found that it can make with out replacer
The way the price off eggs are going it's good to know this.☃️👍☃️💯☃️😋☃️🍰🍨☃️👏☃️🍀☃️
Thank you friend!!!
I’m vegan and I’ve used a can of black beans with the water puréed to make brownies. I’ve used a can of diet soda with a cake mix to make cupcakes. Both methods work just fine.
I have tried apple sauce and flax eggs with less than great results. I have heard that whipped aquafaba from chick peas is a good choice for a leavener but I have not tried it yet.
I've heard that too! Tell me if you try it, I'll tell you if I end up trying it first lol
@@maj1395I tried it today and did not like it. To moist
Now I’m going to make thank you
Does it have to be a yellow cake mix
Success! Whipped aquafaba to a boxed cake no eggs, no oil!
This is awesome, so helpful! And you're gorgeous!
I think best egg replacement I used was
1 teaspoon baking soda +1tablespoon vinegar mix together
Also gluten free 🤷🏼♀️☝️
Can it be white vinegar?
@@thebellstv6829 yes. It is an acid which is what you need to activate the baking soda into a nice fizz.
Banana instead of egg works for sure with added flavor
Hello thank you for sharing
Question so this called vegan and vegetarian cake ?
Sorry I am new and I am interested to make yellow and chocolate box cake too
Waiting for your reply 😊
It'll be vegan when there's no dairy. When there's no non veg, that's vegetarian.
Soda works but a lil floppy gooie, caned tomato soup, and apple sauce
Ingredientes mix box sugar???? Or organic sugar ???
Oatmeal seems to have binding texture after cooked, maybe coconut oil, cause other oil seems rubbery when cooked, butter maybe better, or Yucca 😮 dash a baking soda
Those are some good ideas! So, after making this video, I made some other tests and finally found something that worked best and was for sure the egg replacement with the most delicious result. You can watch the video here: ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html
Thank you 🙂!! Doing it >>>>>
You can use yogurt instead of eggs. Beat some butter add the mix. Mix the cake using yogurt. It works
My son watched food theory and on there they said you don't need to add eggs or oil to the boxed cake mix. It only says that on the box because it makes more people feel better about using boxed cake mix.
You can replace the egg with banana or peanut butter or apple souse
Chocolate cake mix, 1/2 cup canned pumpkin, 3/4 cup water.
i use milk for egg and half water half milk a little flour and baking powder
I have used banana, apple sauce, and flax seeds in water.
Why not try adding
1 tin of Evaporated milk
1/2 cup flour or more if needed
3/4 cup vegetable oil
Alittle water
A tip baking powder.
You will be surprised of the result. I only do eggless cakes most of the times. Im also a cake decorator.
Not everyone can eat dairy. SMH. You people that eat dairy are addicted.
Cause it's not vegan...
Thanks mommy ❤️
I added curd to replace eggs
Put fruit ( can peaches /) use the juice, instead of water,
box cake ( yellow awesome)
Butter
Bake,
Way sooo good,
No eggs, lol
My stepfather was an army cook and often substituted mayo for eggs.. not sure how much
there's egg in mayo if I'm not mistaken..
I did Apple sauce
Eggs hold the cake together. Egg white is used to make dumpling wrappers stick together. Remember egg white sticking to the pan? Egg yolk was used for painting (Egg tempera is a form of paint that is created by mixing egg yolk with powdered pigments and a little water). So, without eggs cake falling apart is normal.
I always use milk instead of water in everything I bake.
Im going to try it since my dad is allergic to eggs
Hi how are you my name is Ken I like to cook and I have also found it I don't know if you know but you can use mayonnaise instead of eggs and oil
Mayo contains eggs
Self rising flour and baking powder is the key
Does this work with chocolate fudge mix
Hey! I actually did a different test with a box of the fudge chocolate brownie mix. You can see how it turned out here ua-cam.com/video/w2fbu5L5M1Y/v-deo.html
I use apple sauce or banana I like the banana best
How much of both?
Glad to hear you didn't need anything. I have no eggs or egg substitutes at home.
No but I’m craving to make that exAct cake you’re making
I add 1/3 cup yogurt when the recipe calls for eggs.
Also great 👍
I’m going to try adding one small box vanilla instant pudding,see what happens! You’re great! God bless and keep you in Jesus’s Precious Name,Amen!🕊💕🙏💜✝️✡️🙋♀️🌹
I was told to put 2 tbs of vinegar instead of eggs
Have you ever used Knox Gelatin as an egg replacer.
What? Gelatin is ground-up animal bones! Ick! The point here to not to use animal products.
use curd yogurt, its very good
maybe up the liquid to the equivalent of the eggs
I have no idea... but it's 3am, I am PMS'ing like a mofo, I am restless👿 and that choc box cake under the counter is saying, "Bitch, yes, get up and do this"😈... and I'm out of eggs... 🤣🤣🤣 here we go and I'll let ya know!!! 😍🍽🥛🍫🍰 Thanks for your groovy channel Cat!!!... I've been vegan before... am 41 and my hormones seem to be having a Bon Voyage party🤯🥳🥳🥳 maybe next week, after my sacred period is over and there's no cake to be made in the house😁 Haha... ahhh the joys💃🏾🔥🔥🔥🍫
1/4 cup of added all-purpose flour and less liquid.
Omg just eat the cake
You can use mayonnaise I have eggs whites
Hi 😊 you need to put milk in the cake
How many time do people put off making their cake because they don't have eggs and come to find out you don't need them!!!
Okay I wanted to just find out if this myth was true, but does she really run a baking channel without know that the main purpose of eggs in baking is as an emulsifier to bind the oil and the water? That I thought was pretty basic to baking.
So...why don't you share how to be successful at vegan baking....what you do to make your sellable products...that would actually help ppl be more successful...
Thanks for the ideas, Tracey! I have a video coming up next month with some tips on successful vegan baking. And I have this video too if you haven't watched it: ua-cam.com/video/wotf9uWlAZs/v-deo.html
A lot of people have been asking for more info on the vegan bakery part of it too so I'll add those to the idea bank for future videos for sure. :)
🙌🏻🍰🙌🏻
I do the same with hotcake flour, only add vegan milk, without eggs, and it's all.
Amazing!
Tried flax eggs 😭👎 not again!!
❤❤❤
You needed to add yogurt as egg replacement with oil and water or only cake mix with can of Soda, you will find any difference. Thank you
yogurt isn’t vegan tho LOL
@@gabrodermond Soy or Coconut yogurt isn't Vegan? I didn't say which yogurt to use, any yogurt is fine.
I usually use a soda
Yes! That's what I did in this video and it was the best for sure! ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html
if you use applesauce it will help keep it stable
I just add flour and baking powder I never use egg for my cake 🤷🏽♀️
I ant eat raw batter w/ eggs stomach says no way Jose'
I have not come across this box cake..type thing….is it American?
I use applesauce!
I still have to try that! I actually got the best result with soda water. Didn't have any added sugar and worked perfectly. You can see how in this video: ua-cam.com/video/oEU-A6g81Sc/v-deo.html
My boyfriend uses mayonnaise 👍🏻
Lol good video 😂
But try icing it lol it will crumble
no its not for show it keeps your cake from falling apart
I just don't have eggs and want cake
That's the issue for me as well.
I though it would be flat also
Box cake and fruit is a dump cake
Just because you take the eggs out don't make it vegan, that brand still has artificial flavors which some come from animals. You have to buy organic cake mix. Around $6
