I was in the baking aisle grabbing Reese’s chocolate chip cookie ingredients and a woman came up to me and pointed at the cake selections. She said she knew nothing about cakes but wanted to choose the best boxed cake flavor. I analyzed the shelves.... I don’t remember every option but there was carrot, chocolate, vanilla, red velvet, coffee cake and funfetti cake. And then what icing do you choose?? I suddenly couldn’t make a decision. She grabbed the carrot and chocolate cake to narrow the options down and I essentially chose carrot with a vanilla icing. As a cookie baker who hasn’t often made cake, I was clearly not the expert to ask. She was aware but still wanted my opinion and at the end of the day, it was a fun interaction. So I’m curious, if you were put in this situation and had to choose a flavor... what boxed cake flavor would you choose? If you have an icing preference to compliment, please share as well!
