Anyhoo, sometimes you just want cake, even if it’s going to be really complicated to prepare, and sometimes you want variety. And sometimes you want a variety of cakes. Where am I going with this? Oh, I can’t remember – I’m just a tad bit hungover this morning and not entirely coherent.
Yes, I know – cake is not the healthiest food choice. But it’s Valentine’s Day. And I was too busy last night working on today’s hangover to put too very much thought into today’s post. So here are some variations on Brandy’s recipe.
Diet Soda Cake
1 (12oz.) can diet soda
1 box Cake Mix, dry
2 egg whites (optional, but some people saying adding this makes the cake fluffier)
Prepare pan (spray with Pam cooking spray) and heat oven according to package directions. Mix together and bake according to package directions for size of cake pan or cupcakes.

Wow, I apparently do not think out of the box at all. Cake mix mixed using soda would NEVER have crossed my mind.
I have to try this out and soon because even though we won't eat the damn cake... I can at least say I baked a damn cake. Ha.. Domestic Goddess I'm so sure.
LOL Kas! I won't usually make cake because I don't want to eat it. Well, I do want to. And that's the problem.
I love cake wrecks!
I have never heard of this cake. I may have to try it sometime.
Have a great weekend, my friend. Hope it's romantic and wonderful :)
Oooo, I like this. I'm going to try chocolate and diet cherry coke!
And Cake Wrecks is my new favorite blog.
I have to bake a birthday cake today. Let's hope it looks better than the cake wrecks cakes!
I have tried this Diet Coke + cake mix thing before and it really DOES work! I did lemon cake mix with diet sprite and it's just delicious. Thanks for posting all the flavor combination ideas. Yay!
Also, I just discovered Cake Wrecks not too long ago and LOOOOVE it!!
Hey that's ME mentioned there! How awesome!
I did know it was an old weight watchers secret but I didn't mention in the blog cause I wanted people to try it without thinking "diet" food, which it is most certainly NOT.
I love, love, love that you gave all the variations. I might have to try the egg whites to see if it makes any difference.
thanks for that comment and when i get to feeling better i will def. try that cake.
The picture immediately brought to mind this recipe!! http://www.kidskuisine.com/?page_id=8
I don't have a lot of options here in NZ for the cake or soda, but will try to find something that works!
I keep hearing about this soda/cake mix combo but have yet to try it. Will get on that!
Thanks for coming by Crumbs!!
Pop with your cake mix, really? I would have never thought of this :-)
Okay, Betty, the cat litter cake is just a little disgusting. The boys would probably love it. LOL!
This is such a great invention. Being on WW for over a year, I really look forward to sweets and this fits the bill for juat a few points.
Thanks for visiting me on Tuesday. Your blog is fun to read too!
I made "brownies" out of devils food cake and a diet coke last year, with Cool Whip frosting - they turned out surprisingly tasty and my coworkers really liked the kind-of healthy treat!
