Help I need to find!!!!

Red Velvet Cake mix

Skyco used to carry it but neither them or Cybercandy have any. I need some by the end of the month.

If I can't guess I will have to make it my own. But I don't have a whole lot of time do really make a good size heart shaped one...

Anyone know of any other expat food sites that might carry it?

I had a box of it a while back and my friend just told me that she saw boxes at Selfridges.

I am off to the Trafford Centre tomorrow morning and I will see if they have it. If they do, shall I buy one for you??

Thanks very much but to fill this cake tin I need about 5 boxes...I will see if I can find it online somewhere...

thank you tho!

I've seen it on eBay. We don't have it here in MA, I feel your pain!

Can you not just buy chocolate cake mix and add tons of red food colouring? When I made one from a mix it was just plain old chocolate cake...

Looks like a relatively simple cake recipe

and it is just a coloured normal cake, I never knew that, i'm not a big cake person

OMG... how on earth are you going to cook a cake that huge?
Won't it be runny in the middle?!

I am assuming she's making several layers- as red velvet cake is usually several layers big

Yummy!! I want to see a pic of it when you're finished

Has anyone been able to find white icing here (like the betty crocker/duncan hines stuff)?

I found chocolate, but I need white for my 4th of July cake

I made this one several years ago...for a friends wedding...and the bottom layer was 8 boxes and I cooked it slowly and it came out fine.

Strangely enough, our little Budgens carries Betty Crocker Vanilla icing. 

Hey MeShell, when do you need it by? There's an ebay store called 'I Shop 4 You' that has loads of Duncan Hines and Betty Crocker cake mixes and frostings. Check it out: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/I-Shop-4-You-II_W0QQfrsrcZ1QQfsubZ9768349QQtZkm

Edit: Doh, I just read you said end of the month.

WOW! That is impressive!

If you need white icing, just make some buttercream from scratch. Its so easy.
