    I made the Duncan Hines Yellow $4.89. I used 6 Tbsp of Butter for the fat/oil. It made exactly 12 cupcakes. Took about 22 minutes to bake. They are absolutely delicious and perfectly buttery. I planned to do Pillsbury Sugar Free Chocolate Frosting $2.89, but they are soooo moist and buttery and delicious without it!!

      One year later, from when you posted this, those items cost $6.00 each. I've got the cake mix in hand. When I picked up the can of vanilla icing vs the chocolate....the vanilla felt lighter? Have you experienced this??? So, I chose the chocolate on my first time. How was your vanilla icing?

    • @learn119
      @learn119 Рік тому

      TY I will try this brand. The difference in price is due to the cost of flour. Almond/coconut/cassava flours are way more expensive than wheat flour. It is worth the cost, especially for birthdays.

Want to add some cooked apples cinnamon brown sugar replacement to make a coffee cake. Any suggestions? Also tried the D.H. White frosting. tasted waxy.

      I did the Duncan with the Duncan icing. My daughter could barely tell it was Keto. I made mini cupcakes and made parfaits with Jello Sugar Free Pudding (used half and half instead of skim milk). Added raspberries and I am beside myself with glee. I made them for a Luau I am having tomorrow and wanted to be able to have some desserts I can eat.

    We found the Birch Benders on Amazon 3 yellow cake mixes for $15.....and local Walmart has them for $5.98. We used melted butter instead of oil and pulled it out right at the 28 minute mark(my oven runs on the cool side).It was still ever so slightly jiggly in the middle but finished setting up as it cooled. The texture was amazing. My non keto family fought over the leftovers. The frosting is soooo good. I have the same opinion as you. I like the chocolate better than vanilla. I also recognize the frosting flavor but can't put my finger on it. Maybe its more similar to a Betty Crocker Extra Fluffy chocolate frosting 🤔

  • @purplemav
    @purplemav 3 роки тому +2

    To make the vanilla floating taste better I mixed in about 1/4 cup of softened salted butter and a little extra vanilla extract with my electric mixer. For me it made a huge difference in flavor and it wasn’t so stiff when it was refrigerated.

    • @purplemav

    Very helpful and enjoyable video, Jess! Thank you so much for going to the trouble [and expense] to test these out for us! I had no idea Duncan Hines had a keto cake mix! I usually make cakes from scratch, but if I were in a hurry, I would definitely appreciate having one of these mixes in the pantry to reach for! Also, when friends and family are kind enough to offer to bake desserts for us, we can now suggest to them these mixes [then they won't have to buy all the expensive ingredients!] For a different spin on the texture, try blending everything up in a strong blender! It gives it lots of lift!

  • @MaryZappamb4chrst
    @MaryZappamb4chrst 2 роки тому +1

    Here is how I tweaked my Duncan Hines: I bought the yellow cake mix (keto) because I was craving a good cake- but I wanted a chocolate cake- I was testing this product as I have tested other Keto products and only came to have my cravings crash and become sadly disappointed. I have been doing Keto for over 3 years, and I'm so glad there are plenty more options out there, but the price gouging is ridiculous! Here is my review and what I did to make my cake a success: Wet ingredients: 4 room temp eggs, 1/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup water, 3 tablespoons melted butter, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tablespoon of sour cream, mix well. Dry ingredients: Cake mix, 1/4 or less cup of cocoa powder. Mix all your ingredients with hand blender. Last add 1/4 cup of Lily's chocolate chips, or any brand of your choice. Bake at 350 degrees for time indicated on box. Frosting: 1 1/2 cubes of unsalted butter (room tempo) blend with hand mixer until creamy. Add 1 tbls heavy cream or almond milk. 1 tbls vanilla extract. Add powdered monkfruit sweetener or any of your choice. (I like Swerve also). Remember powdered/confectioners...sweetener- I don't measure my sweetener but I would guess start with 1/2 cup at least, then add until desired taste. Next add powder cocoa start with 1/4 cup, then taste. 1 pinch salt. Last I would highly recommend this, it throws this into another level- melt about 1/4 cup of chocolate chips and add to your mixture- blend and walahhh! Chocolate frosting goodness! After I baked my cake and let it cool, I cut it in 1/2, so I can have two layers, I mean I cut in half and not the middle like you would normally do. This gave me a half of a cake, but 2 layers and frosted well (you will have to make sure your frosting is room temp for the perfect texture). My husband (very picky) ate a piece and said it taste like a regular flour cake. I agree, it was so good, and the frosting makes this even more delicious, also with the little chocolate chips inside the cake is a chocolate lovers dream!!! Lastly, I would like to recommend that you cover and refrigerate this cake, BUT when you get ready to eat some take it out and let it sit for at least 45 minutes to soften. Duncan Hines was priced over $7.00, not happy about that price gouging!

    Hello thank you for doing this video. I was just wondering if you knew if the eggs and coconut oil macros are already added when it says for baked cake each serving. 30g 200 calories. Because I'm really counting them. And I'm trying to figure out why it goes high in calories when baked.
    It's probably a dumb question but really don't know for sure and I think if I didn't ask I might over eat which I'm not trying to do. Thank you in advance ☺️

      Try Birch Benders brownie mix. I make mug cake from it. I use 6 tbsp of the mix, half an egg or just egg yold, 2 TBSP melted butter and a little water. I microwave 1 minute and 10 seconds. I top with a few cut up berries and a spray of sugar free whip cream. I do this once in awhile. it hits the spot. (can make only 3 TBSP of mix also)
