Miss Jones Baking Organic Cake and Cupcake Mix, Non-GMO, Vegan-Friendly, Moist and Fluffy: Chocolate (Pack of 2)

I have been using this cake mix for a few years now and really liked it until I noticed the texture of the baked cake began to change, and where I usually had used one box to make one cake, I found that the cake was not rising any longer as before so I used two cake mixes to obtain the same results. So, this last time I made the vanilla cake, I noticed that the cake layers were very dense and not good at all. I read the ingredients on the box and saw that “corn Starch” and “wheat starch” were listed. I am a life long baker and cook and have never used any kind or form of “starch” in my baking. I will no longer be using these products for all of these obvious reasons. Back to scratch for me.

I'm a label reader from way back. But I'm not a nut about it. It's important to me that packaged foods have no weird chemical ingredients, hydrogenated oils or trans fats. however, that's about as far as i go - i'm ok with sugar. whole wheat flour cakes and cookies are just awful - let's face it white flour makes better pastries - so i'm just fine with enriched white flower. Natural would be great - organic even better - but i don't really expect that. yet what a blessing it would be to get to the point where you could walk down any supermarket aisle and expect that what you pick up will have only good ingredients....it seems as if food manufacturers are starting to really try to offer more products with less synthetic ingredients. and that's to be applauded. we all know the less chemicals in our diet the healthier we will be - and it's cumulative. carcinogens are bad. we all know that now.enter miss jones and her crew. she's doing something great. i first read about her in my s.f. sunday paper. I bought her chocolate cake mix, white cake mix, chocolate frosting, vanilla frosting, and brownie mix. No bad chemicals. Everything was so easy to make and delicious. I bought cases of each because i like to have things in stock and have them on hand. they were so sweet to send me a "miss jones" spatula as a thank you gift.now to make a few suggestions to miss jones whom i hope keeps an eye on amazon too: the vanilla is just sweet. it needs some oomph some personality. i zested a few lemons and mixed it into both the vanilla cake and frosting - it was amazing! please suggest that on the labels. the chocolate cake mix...i added a half a bag os nestle chocolate chips. that was also amazing. the brownies i added a cup of chopped walnuts. but now for the frosting. it's not fun to spread on - needs to be more spreadable. i had to distribute small spoonfulls over the cooled cake and flatten them together with a wet spatula (thanks for which miss jones!) why does the worst criticism have to come last? because this IS a five star review. i am SO happy to have a clean ingredient, really good cake and brownie mix that is so easy to make. but the frosting is too waxy. the texture or "mouth feel" brings to mind crisco or maybe lard. don't get me wrong - it's still light years ahead of my having to make frosting from scratch. but i seem to remember from the days when i did bake a lot years ago (i even baked professionally). i remember old cook books featuring cake icing recipes that were mostly confectioner's sugar, butter, and milk (vanilla and a little salt of course) the texture was lovely and delicate. please miss jones check it out.

Oh my gosh! I can't believe I actually found a vegan cake mix that taste delicious! I follow the vegan instructions and add my own flavorings such as orange extract, vanilla, or pumpkin spice. It taste great on its own but I love making flavored cakes.

I think this makes a great cake. I love that this is organic and nut free (hard to find nut-free baking mixes!). The best thing about this is all the recipes beyond cake that Miss Jones offers. I've used this mix to make donuts (salted caramel) and they are out of this world delicious. Do yourself a favor and check out her website for all the really unique recipes and you will be in dessert heaven.

Ordered this product specifically because it was advertised as a vegan product. Perhaps it is, however the first thing I read was in order to make it I would need 3 eggs, 1 cup milk & butter. Seriously? So the first thing I need to do is buy substitutes for all those products. Ripoff! Next time I’ll just buy Betty Crocker. It’s vegan too but just will need egg substitutes & water. A lot easier.Additional note:Was contacted by the company about my dissatisfaction. They offered to send me a replacement for my order. They also gave me suggestions about how to make the mix vegan. As an individual I appreciate a company that cares about its customers. I still believe that they should market their mix stressing its natural ingredients and it’s incredible chocolate flavor. It wouldn’t hurt to write vegan directions on the box either. Not all of us are as well versed at that conversation as others. Still, thank MissJones.

I've been trying my hand at baking these days and came across Miss Jones at my local Safeway. They ran out of the Vanilla mix and I found it online. Since I was already placing an order, I included the frosting as well to save time. I was drawn to this brand because it's organic and there are a lot of unnecessary ingredients in other brands. I like that the recipe to make the cake batter includes milk. A forever cake-batter-tester, I found it to be the perfect sweetness. Other brands you may find in a grocery store have a lot of sugar in them and I found Miss Jones' cake mix to be just right. The frosting will take care of the sweetness. I bought the peppermint frosting and it was delicious. I had a few leftover cupcakes and after three days in a sealed container, they were still moist. Because the cake mix is removed of artificial ingredients, per the box, the cake does not rise as much so next time I will add more batter to the cup.

Whenever I use this mix to make cakes everyone thinks I am a baking genius. It tastes so good and I cannot describe the special taste!! Please try if you haven’t. You will get stuck with these just Like I did. I subscribed to get them monthly too!

Delicious; everyone loved this cake; truly, as homemade taste and texture. Will surely purchase again and again. Thank you for a great product at a reasonable price. M.
