Bulk Baking Mix image

This recipe post came about by a mad search! I needed a basic cake mix and just couldn't find the one that I needed...just the dry ingredients...wet to be added in later. I did find a recipe here on Zaar that mentioned a site www.stretcher.com which is where I found this. BUT now I can't find that recipe posting anymore! So for my sanity I am posting this. This makes 25 1/2 cups of cake mix. "Don't overlook the other uses of baking mixes in your home, either. Mixes can be packaged and labeled attractively to be given as gifts. They can be taken along on the family camping trip to add convenience at the campsite, replacing costly prepackaged foods. Mixes are also easily prepared by children, making it simple for them to help in the kitchen. Mix away!"
