I don't remember the diet coke cake having eggs in it. But I have not actually made it myelf; I've only heard about it.

I know several people who make homemade Bisquick. It actually isn't just flour and baking soda; there is fat in it and a few other things.

It just amazes me that there are so many people who use soda in their cooking. Until this forum, I have never heard of such things.

Seems like I heard somewhere that Coke is a good marinade for grilled meat, but I can't remember where I heard that. Might be worth a try anyway.

Sorry, OT, this thread was about baking mixes. Carry on.

I thought Coke was only for drinking, I didn't know it was used it any kind of pastry. I suppose it would add a nice flavor, though.

Ooh. Does anyone want to share their hot cocoa mix with me? I'd greatly appreciate it!

I actually can't remember anytime that I haven't used a box mix. I know I've made a cake from scratch but I can't remember when, so it must've been quite awhile ago. For those of you who make your own from scratch do you ever just mix up the dry ingredients to store for a few weeks or do you tend to just make it when you want to bake it? Being able to do a lot at once and just store it away for easy baking later sounds rather appealing to me.
