Duncan Hines - Perfect is not perfect
Recently bought two different flavors of the perfect for 1 cakes. After making them, the carrot cake looked like a wine cork with so much sweetness, it was sour.
Hard, small and dry. Ice cream wouldn't have helped this disappointment at all. Followed all the directions. The coffee cake was equally bad.
Crumb and chocolate didn't mix well. Wife gagged after her first bite. Would like to know if this was a bad batch or normal expectations. Maybe I can use it for traction on my snow covered driveway.....
the roughness of the mixture would help me not get stuck this winter.
This product needs more improvement. Road tar has more flexibility.
Reason of review: Bad quality.
Monetary Loss: $6.
Preferred solution: Reformulate the recipe to allow leavening in the microwave oven..
Duncan Hines Cons: Perfect size carrot cake and crumb coffee cake.

We have bought many of the Perfect Size For 1 mixes and the 3 of us have like them all so far except the Carrot Cake mix.When my son first make a Carrot Cake one, he put it in the microwave and, within seconds, it was giving off a very strange odor - almost chemical-like. The smell continued as it cooked and permeated our entire kitchen/livingroom.I decided to take a taste after it cooled a bit, and the flavor was the same as the chemical scent MIXED WITH the sickeningly sweet cake mix.We immediately threw it away and agreed that no one will eat the Carrot Cake mixes.
