Miss Jones Baking Organic Cake and Cupcake Mix, Non-GMO, Vegan-Friendly, Moist and Fluffy: Chocolate (Pack of 1)

I'm a label reader from way back. But I'm not a nut about it. It's important to me that packaged foods have no weird chemical ingredients, hydrogenated oils or trans fats. however, that's about as far as i go - i'm ok with sugar. whole wheat flour cakes and cookies are just awful - let's face it white flour makes better pastries - so i'm just fine with enriched white flower. Natural would be great - organic even better - but i don't really expect that. yet what a blessing it would be to get to the point where you could walk down any supermarket aisle and expect that what you pick up will have only good ingredients....it seems as if food manufacturers are starting to really try to offer more products with less synthetic ingredients. and that's to be applauded. we all know the less chemicals in our diet the healthier we will be - and it's cumulative. carcinogens are bad. we all know that now. enter miss jones and her crew. she's doing something great. i first read about her in my s.f. sunday paper. I bought her chocolate cake mix, white cake mix, chocolate frosting, vanilla frosting, and brownie mix. No bad chemicals. Everything was so easy to make and delicious. I bought cases of each because i like to have things in stock and have them on hand. they were so sweet to send me a "miss jones" spatula as a thank you gift. now to make a few suggestions to miss jones whom i hope keeps an eye on amazon too: the vanilla is just sweet. it needs some oomph some personality. i zested a few lemons and mixed it into both the vanilla cake and frosting - it was amazing! please suggest that on the labels. the chocolate cake mix...i added a half a bag os nestle chocolate chips. that was also amazing. the brownies i added a cup of chopped walnuts. but now for the frosting. it's not fun to spread on - needs to be more spreadable. i had to distribute small spoonfulls over the cooled cake and flatten them together with a wet spatula (thanks for which miss jones!) why does the worst criticism have to come last? because this IS a five star review. i am SO happy to have a clean ingredient, really good cake and brownie mix that is so easy to make. but the frosting is too waxy. the texture or "mouth feel" brings to mind crisco or maybe lard. don't get me wrong - it's still light years ahead of my having to make frosting from scratch. but i seem to remember from the days when i did bake a lot years ago (i even baked professionally). i remember old cook books featuring cake icing recipes that were mostly confectioner's sugar, butter, and milk (vanilla and a little salt of course) the texture was lovely and delicate. please miss jones check it out.

This cake mix is a great base for a quick, homemade tasting chocolate cake. I bought this to bake for my niece’s 16th birthday. One of her friends is allergic to nuts, and this was a good way to avoid potentially dangerous allergens. And it worked! I did doctor this mix by switching out half the milk for strong coffee and by mixing in some 70% chocolate chips (also nut free.) I mixed the wet ingredients with a mixer first and then gently folded in the dry powder mix, so I didn’t overwork the batter. The cakes were very moist and tender. This mix is a little expensive, but it’s better than any of the box mixes I have tried. I appreciate that it tells you to use butter and milk instead of oil and water, as this also helps give this product a more homemade taste.

I loved finding a cake mix with nice clean ingredients for occasions when I'm limited on time and don't want to make on from scratch. I don't buy traditional box cake mixes because of all of the added ingredients. I made these for my daughters birthday party. Flavor and texture were great. I had several people compliment the cake! A bit more pricey than a standard cake mix, but honestly expected, and worth it for me to avoid extra ingredients and save time.

Super tasty! Easy to use and easy to read directions. Good quality ingredients and packaging. Very moist. Definitely will buy again.

I liked how easy this was to prepare and appreciate the simpler ingredient list compared with a lot of traditional boxed cake mixes. The chocolate flavor was good, although my cake did come out a little drier than I expected. I’m not sure if that was the mix itself or if I may have baked it slightly too long, so I’d be willing to try it again and adjust the bake time. Overall, a convenient option when I don’t want to make a cake completely from scratch.

First cake mix that actually is chocolate/cocoa forward. I made a ganache for the first one we baked. Going forward, I’ll make a cream cheese frosting or a vanilla butter cream.

These are the best cake mixes ever! Exactly what you hope to get! They have a great texture, super moist, minimal and good ingredients. Super easy baking instructions. Great value for money. IT'S ORGANIC!!!!!! Must buy!

I searched for gluten-free cake mixes. This one came up, and I decided to try it. But it tuned out to be dairy free, but NOT gluten-free! It's probably a nice mix, but not what I can eat, unfortunately.
