Instructions:

1. Mix the Ingredients:
   Whisk together all the ingredients for the upsizing mix (either white/yellow or chocolate, depending on the flavor you’re using) until they’re thoroughly blended. This will ensure even distribution when added to your cake mix.
2. Store the Mixture:
   Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and store it at room temperature. It will stay fresh until you’re ready to use it.
3. How to Use the Upsizing Mix:
   When you’re ready to bake, take a standard 15.25-ounce cake mix and add 3 ounces (about six tablespoons) of your homemade upsizing mix to it. This will increase your cake mix to 18.25 ounces.
4. Follow Original Cake Instructions:
   Use the standard instructions on your cake mix box for the liquid ingredients (water, oil, eggs, etc.). The upsizing mix is there to increase the volume without changing the proportions of the other ingredients.
