SUN DROP CAKE

This is a favorite at our company potlucks. If you do not have Sun Drop, you can use Mountain Dew. You can also use orange cake mix, and use Orange Crush for the soda. It is a great addition, as well.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (18 1/4 ounce) package lemon cake mix (2 layer)
1 (4 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix
1 (12 ounce) can Sundrop soda or 1 (12 ounce) can Mountain Dew soda
3 eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine the cake mix, Sundrop soda, eggs and vegetable oil in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes. Spoon into a flutes pan.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F.
  • I have used a 9*13 pan also and it works just the same.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the cake batter come together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Gradually add the flour and baking powder, mixing until just combined: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

The Sun Drop Pound Cake is a moist, flavorful cake that is perfect for any occasion. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cake, give the Sun Drop Pound Cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
