Ingredients

Mix

  • 1 kg (7 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 1 kg (5 cups) white granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon salt

Cake

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup cake mix
  • ⅓ cup (80 ml) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg

Directions

Mix

  1. Combine all ingredients together in a very large container. Whisk together until evenly distributed.
  2. Transfer to a large container for storage.

Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Grease and line a cake or cupcake pan.
  2. Beat the butter in a mixing bowl until soft (1–2 minutes using mixer or 3–4 minutes by hand).
  3. Add the cake mix and mix for around 30 seconds.
  4. Add remaining ingredients and beat for 1–2 minutes until combined. Don't over-mix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pans.
  6. Bake until golden and cooked through. Aim for 15 minutes for cupcakes, 20–25 minutes for 8-inch cakes, and 30–38 minutes for 9×13-inch cakes.
  7. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.
