    Devils Food Cake was super dry!

    This cake mix used to be sooo moist! Made one yesterday and iced it for today. When I cut it, it was terribly dry! Been researching on the internet and apparently, this is a common issue now with DH cake mixes. That’s all I used to use because my grandson has a milk intolerance and DH mixes are milk free.

    The last few times I’ve made this cake it hasn’t tasted the same. This is the only cake I ever make and always gotten great feedback about how moist it is. Not anymore. I want to just throw it out once I take a bite.

    I am a 67 year old formerly Duncan Hines brand loyalist. The quality has been declining over the last several years, but it has now hit rock bottom. I made cupcakes last week (19 instead of the former 24), and even the kids didn’t want more than one. The flavor was terrible, and the texture was a weird clumpy mess. They went into the trash, and I will now be baking my cakes from scratch

    Bought this cake mix recently for my son's birthday. Usually Duncan Hines is great. It was the white cake mix. It turned out weird and crumbly. I rechecked the ingredients and knew I baked it for the shortest amount of time. I took my fork this morning to go through it and it was just crumbles. Over half of the cake went in the garbage! What a sad birthday disappointment. No more Duncan Hines for me!!!!!

    I love the DuncanHines Classic Devil's food cake mix because it is always so moist and rich with flavor it doesn't taste like a mix at all. I use 5 eggs, 2/3 cup melted butter and a cup of Oat Milk and it is just spectacular!! This cake has always been so moist all there cake mixes are delicious without any additions but with the addition of two eggs the melted real butter and a cup of milk this bake really takes the cake!! I like to use the Duncan Hines dark chocolate frosting w/bright multicolored neon stars or confetti sprinkles to liven it up & make it look so much fun!! You can thinly slice neon taffy, stretch it a bit and wrap around a pencil to spiral for neon streamers and your children will just love it!!

    Not like it used to be

    Disappointed #2 - 7 months ago
    originally posted on duncanhines.com
    I’m 70 years old and through all of my cooking years, I swore by Duncan Hines cake mixes. I Ialways bought devil’s food cake. It was always soft, tender, moist and chocolatey. But in the last five years whenever I buy it (because I just can’t bring myself to buy another brand). I’m always disappointed. This is the last time I’ll be buying Duncan Hines devils food, it’s dry, Stiff and not very chocolatey. For Easter I made a devil’s food and a white cake mix. I use the same oil, same eggs, except no yolks for the white. That proved to me that there’s something wrong with your chocolate cake mix it has definitely changed because the white was much more tender and moist. Not like they used to be but much better than the chocolate. There’s no doubt in my mind you’ve changed the recipe to cheaper ingredients. I know some people say that they’re good and they give five stars but they probably liked Betty Crocker cakes Which were always dry and not too flavorful. In fact, does anyone remember many years ago there was a Duncan Hines Commercial that said that their cakes were moist, and the “other cake mix” was dry? Unfortunately, now Duncan Hines has taken that title for their chocolate cake. Now I have to find out which brand is better.

    Dry devil's food cake

    Mary Lynne - 8 months ago

    I baked a cake with this product and followed the instructions. The cook time was 24 to 29 minutes. I selected 24 minutes so as to not overbake my cake. That did not matter. The cake still came out dry. I've been using Duncan Hines for years and I cannot imagine why the last two times I've used this particular product which is the devil's food cake recipe that the cake comes out very dry. I'm very dissatisfied because my son's birthday cake was not good.
