I am making a SpngeBob cake for my son's 2nd birthday. I am making the cake today for the party tomorrow. The recipie says to get one box of yellow cake mix, and prepare it as pound cake. The only box of yellow cake mix that had a pound cake recipie on it was Duncan Hines. Well, it doesn't have any special high altitude baking directions for the pound cake version. I tried calling them, but it is all automated and I also checked their website and found nothing. It is also baked in a bundt pan, but I need to use a 9x13. Is a pound cake affected by high altitude? And do you think it would be okay to use a 9x13 rather than a bundt? I figured I could just shorten the cooking time. If this seems to be too much trouble, I could just bake it as the regualr yellow cake. Thanks for your help ladies!

Here is a link to the recipie: http://www.nickjr.com/food/cooking_with_kids/spongebob_cake.jhtml

rengirl,

Goodluck with your cake! My husband and I want to move back to Denver in two years and I'm dreading high altitude baking. I might just reroute us back to Seattle to avoid it.
