Go yellow if: you’re making a classic birthday cake, a pineapple upside-down cake, or just want a dessert that doesn’t need excuses. It’s the reliable friend who brings wine to your pity party.

Go white if: you’re aiming for a pristine color—like for a wedding cake, gelatin-based treats, or that time you made a rainbow cake and wanted the layers to pop. It’s also great if you plan to do that whole “add crushed Oreos and pretend it’s gourmet” thing.

Suddenly, your yellow or white cake mix tastes like you spent three hours in the kitchen. I won’t tell if you won’t.

Also, if you’re using white cake mix and it smells faintly of glue? That’s normal. Trust the process. Or add a pinch of cinnamon to mask it. Cinnamon fixes everything.
