Review: So far, we’ve had the brownies and I’m really picky about brownies, so I was curious how this would turn out. They came out awesome! Really fudge and not cakey and the best part……… they didn’t have a weird texture or aftertaste at all! Unlike some of the other kinds of gluten free mixes we’ve tried.
 
Last night, I made the yellow cake mix. Now, I have to make this disclaimer before going any further. I made the cake in our Tupperware bowl in the microwave, so I can’t comment on the oven cooking times or anything related to that. The thing is, it had a really different texture while mixing it and I made it exactly as directed. It was much more watery and the powder was a very fine texture.

When it was cooled and iced, my first slice was the test. The yellow cake was a bit different than a traditional taste and texture, but not bad at all. No after taste, and still a good flavor. The texture is a little more sponge like, and a little heavier with a fine grain compared to regular flower cake mixes.

We still have cookies and a devil’s food cake mix to go, but I want you to get a chance to try these too!
