there's a book called the Cake Mix Doctor...it's really cool because it gives you all kinds of varieties to the basic box mix.

I bought mine 2nd hand off e-bay but you have to be careful because sometimes the used ones sell for more than a new one on amazon!

...maybe you could find it at your local library to test out a few recipes to see if you really want to buy it.

I just bought my Cake Mix Doctor book last week and can't wait to try some recipies. She also has one for cupcakes but I didn't have a chance to look at that one. I think it was $14.95, but with the amount of recipies, it seemed worth my while.... Plus she has helpful hints throughout.

Sour cream! I always thought this sounded disgusting but it makes a big difference to boxed cake. You have to have it in conjunction with flour, sugar and oil....definitely check out the Cake Mix Doctor book.

I use 1 stick of butter instead of oil, whole milk instead of water, a little cocoa powder(if its chocolate) & some pudding - it comes out great!

My mother also said add buttermilk to replace any liquid in the mix (water or regular milk).

Check you local bookstore for the book. I've seen it at Target I believe too.
