If ...Bulk Barn also carries Wilton cake supplies. <br /><br />If you want to not have the dark brown edges (and a more even top) get some of the cake baking insulating strips. I have no idea where you buy them (I have one of my mom's ones, that's probably older than me), but they're long strips of an insulating material, and it keeps the edges from burning, and slows down how they bake, so they aren't done as long before the centre, which makes for a more even top.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03567549830059823566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-57919174578289069112013-06-06T03:11:05.335-06:002013-06-06T03:11:05.335-06:00The tip I have seen is to colour the whole bowl of...The tip I have seen is to colour the whole bowl of cake mix with a tiny dab of colouring paste, remove 2/3, colour that with another dab of paste, remove half and colour that with more.

A "throe" is a sharp anguished spasm or a condition of struggle. Most people aren't in anguish in the summer. Well, unless you live in Arizona and it's 122 deg in the shade!:) Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055340314451907458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-34673359001985767262013-06-05T14:02:28.439-06:002013-06-05T14:02:28.439-06:00I've seen the gel at walmart but for the life ...I've seen the gel at walmart but for the life of me couldn't find traditional food coloring there.

They are only about $2 and I am told that they "last forever". (I haven't bought any yet, myself, so I can't vouch for that statement)<br /><br />Jessica, your cake looks super!!!! And the icing looks great. My cakes are always covered in lost of sprinkles, they hide my poor decorating skills nicely!

May I suggest combining it with this pin http://www.bronzebudgetbride.com/magazine/read/recipe-for-making-a-box-cake-taste-homemade_2715.html ? I used it last night to make my fiance's (late) birthday cake and while I wouldn't quite say it tasted 100% homemade, it was awesomely rich and delicious.

Then it might not take as much food colouring for the layers.

They carry Wilton brand. :-) I prefer Americolor, though, because you can control how many drops you put in. Wilton is a little harder to use, in a case like this, if you want accurate. This cake is lovely!
