Or any other brands etc, are these any good? I have never used them before, usually make my own cakes but want something quick to do and pre measured

If anyone can help that would be great, best brand etc and any offers?

Thanks

I use them all the time, They are great. Tescos had 3 for 2 a few weeks ago and that was a good time for stocking up on. They are that good i pass them off as my own lol.

I think they're fab - the devils food cake with the chocolate fudge icing they make is lovely.

I've had moderate success with their cookie mixes - I highly reccomend the "millies cookies recipe" floating around here on mse though.

If you want a bit more choice, if you can get your hands on Duncan Hine's mixes - they're very good too - especially recommend the Red Velvet cake.

I'm a bit of a RV nerd and theres a lot of very odd goings on to bake one from scratch - think buttermilk and cider vinegar into baking powder, etc etc and I like the Duncan Hines mix so much I hardly ever make RV from scratch anymore!

The whoopie pie ones are lovely, very quick and easy to make.

Wow thank you everyone.
I was thinking chocolate so the devils food cake sounds perfect! The fiance loves cookies and was asking if we could make them as well lol so will definitely have a look for that recipe! Thanks :beer:
