This is my favorite recipe for white cake! This cake is light, soft, moist and decorated with delicious vanilla icing.
After releasing my favorite recipe for chocolate cake a few months ago, I have several requests for white cake recipes. Now I have always been a chocolate cake lover, but after asking so much, I decided it was time to really do a good recipe for white cake.
I know this white cake must be light, soft, smooth and very moist. After a little trial and error I finally found the winning formula! I even cooked a white cake box mixture to compare it to this recipe, and my husband told me that my version is better and tastes better. That's what I call victory!
I also included instructions for making cakes on a 9 × 13 plate, if you don't want to make a cake with layers and a few extra pictures to help you along the way!
