A butter cake premix is a convenient baking mix that provides most of the dry ingredients needed to make a classic, rich, and moist butter cake.
Key Characteristics:
Rich Flavor: Unlike a lighter sponge cake, a butter cake is known for its dense, buttery, and moist crumb.
Simple Preparation: You typically only need to add wet ingredients like eggs and butter (and sometimes a little water or milk).
Method: For a true butter cake, the method often involves creaming the butter (or margarine) with the premix before adding the eggs, which helps incorporate air for a better texture.
