When it comes to a mix, I prefer Duncan Hines. It's a little bit sweeter and the texture is nicer. I used Betty Crocker one time, and no one in the family liked it.
I am on the fence about this one. Up until recently, all I used was Duncan Hines. It is moist and everyone seems to like it. I have been trying out Betty Crocker since I am getting ready to make a cake in which the tiers tilt. I am testing to see if Betty Crocker is denser, therefore hopefully helping provide structure with the tilted cake.
I have made the german chocolate and that funfetti cake mix from Betty Crocker. They do appear denser. Everyone said they liked the taste of the cakes... but boy do I love Duncan Hines german chocolate!
I always make the WASC (or a variation of it), and use Duncan Hines with it, mainly because it's usually a few cents cheaper than Betty Crocker. I've had excellent results with both, though. The ONE situation where I absolutely HAVE to have Duncan Hines, is when I'm making a dark chocolate cake. The Betty Crocker Dark Chocolate Fudge mix is so much lighter in color than the DH, I can't stand it! I also absolutely MUST have the right pudding brand for this as well, for the same reason (some brands just don't make their chocolate puddings dark enough!).
I've used both and prefer Betty Crocker. In our grocery stores, the prices are about the same. But Target carries the basic (choc, white, yellow) Betty Crocker mixes for $1.09 - less than half the price at other local groceries. So I'm using exclusively Betty Crocker from Target for my WASC recipes.
For WASC, DH even though it is rarely on sale and more money than BC
Duncan Hines for me too. Super moist and it seems to taste better too.
I only use mix when doing wasc and I use betty crocker. The main reason is that here most duncan hines mixes have a nut warning on them but bc do not. We have a few friends with allergies so as a general rule i don't use products with nut warnings.
