all you need is any cake mix and add 12 ounces of any diet or regular flavor carbonated soda....thats all..then just bake as directed..it tastes so much better and has half the calories

Are you sure that this cake will turn out? I have never heard of using pop in cake before. I may have to try it. Just add a can of pop to the box cake mix and bake? OK! Thanks, KMT

I will have to try this one. The one I have takes any cake mix and one 15 oz can of canned pumpkin which I tried once and it bakes up just like cake. I couldnt taste the pumpkin either. One slice (1/16 piece)ended up being 133 calories and 2.5 grams of fat, not too bad if you are restricting calories and fat. I used Pillsbury 50% less sugar cake mix. I sprinkled 1/4 C. of mini choc chips on top of the whole cake when it was done. Still not something you should eat all the time but great for get togethers or the occational craving for cake.

I had to post another reply after making this recipe for cake for a pot luck at work, I was elected to bring dessert. For those of you who are skeptical about this recipe, I couldn't believe that it actually turned out good, as with my pumpkin cake recipe. But this was way better. My pumpkin recipe was a little on the dry side. This recipe with the soda pop is so moist. I made Devin's cream cheese icing and spread a very thin layer on top. Perfect!
Thanks for the recipe. By the way I did the math and it turns out to be 90 calories and 1.5 grams fat for 1/24 slice without icing.

I would not use diet sodas with aspartane as it chemically changes when heated up that, if I remember correctly, is very much like formaldahyde. Stick with other sweetners are go regular.
