Even professional bakers use box mixes sometimes.

That's all well and good, but at least tuck the parchment paper away before taking a picture.

I appreciate [homemade] posts that don't look like a pro chef made them.

when i was a kid, my father wasn't much of a baker. but he LOVED baking boxed cakes with us kiddos, to bond with us. this makes me think of all those times. this looks delicious. i'd eat the whole thing honestly.

I opened the comments thinking "Oh boy, they're gonna tear this dude a new one". Instead I found wholesomeness 😊.

I don’t care if it isn’t the most beautiful cake in the world, it looks moist and delicious! Much prettier than some of the things my toddlers have helped make too.

Listen, I’m not a baker. It’s definitely over-baked, and sad. And to top it off, I used a box mix but added vanilla. Then I realized I don’t have round cake pans, so I used square glass pirex pans. But the icing is homemade! Bear in mind this was a snow day activity to keep a toddler engaged and from tearing apart the house from boredom 🙃
