Hi all

I am an aussie and am interested in making the 3-2-1 cake. I went to coles and could not find the Betty Crocker's angel food cake mix. Can't we get this in Australia?

    Hey it's me!! I am sure I have seen this around, can't remember where, will let you know if I find it. What is the 3-2-1 thing? I think Angel cake has no fat at all

    Hey Christine,

    Its a recipe (below) to add Betty Crockers Angel Food mix and a cake mix together, then you use 3 tbls of mix, 2 tbs of water and 1 min in the microwave...presto mini cake in a cup. Yes it has no fat etc. I saw this in the recipe section yesterday.

    3-2-1 CAKE

    Ingredients:

    1 box Angel Food Cake Mix
    1 box Cake Mix - Any Flavour
    2 Tbsp Water


    Directions:

    In a ziploc bag, combine the two cake mixes together and mix well. For each individual cake serving, take out 3 Tablespoons of the cake mix combination and mix it with 2 Tablespoons of water in a small microwave-safe container. Microwave on high for 1 minute, and you have your own instant individual little cake! Keep remaining cake mixture stored in the ziploc bag and use whenever you feel like a treat! You can top each cake with a dollop of fat free whipped topping and/or some fresh fruit.

    HOW TO WORK OUT CALORIES:
    I entered each cake mix’s nutritional info and then I measure how much mix I had. I had 7.5 cups of mix (after they were mixed together) and each cup has 16 tbsp in it (according to my conversion chart) so 7.5 x 16 = 120 tbsp of mix. Divide that by the 3 tbsp per cake and it comes to 40 servings. I used Betty Crocker - Angel Food Cake Mix Fat Free.

    I simply entered it into the search space when I logged in my food journal and it was there. Can't remember the exact amount but lemon cake mix and angel food mix was excellent. I topped it with crushed fresh strawberries. Yum
