Do any of you have a great white cake recipe? I know I should have found one sooner but I’m at my best when under a little pressure. Please don’t tell me to just go out and buy a mix. I like to make my cakes but have never made just a plain white cake. I’ll be trying out a recipe today and see how it goes but if anybody has one that they know is moist and perfect, please share! Thank you!

(The picture is from my vintage recipe booklets. This one is for Gold Medal Softasilk Cake Flour, printed in 1931. it includes an illustration of two brides making birthday cakes for their husbands. One uses Softasilk, the other doesn’t and she fails. There is a drawing of her husband mad at her and the flat cake. Hilarious and sad.)


I have never made a cake from scratch. Grandma always had a box of SoftasSilk on the shelf but it was never used. Some kind of holy grail I think. If I remember correctly, we would make a cake from a box mix, put it in the oven and then pray in front of the SoftasSilk box that it would turn out good. I never saw her use it.
Good luck with your project!
