Also to know is, how many cups does a box of cake mix make?
4 cups
Subsequently, question is, how do you calculate cake batter? I would make the below calculations:
- General Formula for any sized tier: Pi (3.14) x cake layer radius squared x cake layer height x number of cake layers.
- 12 inch tier: 3.14 x (6 in. x 6 in.) x 1 in. x 3 layers= 339 cubic inches.
- 9 inch tier: 3.14 x (4.5 in. x 4.5 in.) x 1 in.
- 6 inch tier: 3.14 x (3 in. x 3 in.) x 1 in.
Then, how many cups are in a 15.25 oz box of cake mix?
box, just use the approximate cup amount given in parentheses -- about 1 3/4 cups (which is still about half the box!). If the recipe calls for an entire 18.25-oz. box, use any whole box with 15.25 - 18.25 ounces.
Can I make 2 boxes of cake mix at once?
When you use boxed cake mix to make a large cake, you will double both the mix as well as the amounts of all ingredients listed in the directions on the box and adjust the baking time accordingly. This little bit of extra effort will be well worth it when you serve the cake and all your guests can enjoy it.
