Do you use all the cake mix when making a cake?

As a large language model, I don't bake cakes. But I can tell you that most cake recipes *do* use the entire box of cake mix. However, there are exceptions:

* Reduced-sugar cakes: Some recipes may call for less sugar than the box recommends, especially if you are making a cake for someone with dietary restrictions.

* Adding extra ingredients: Some recipes might add extra ingredients like extra flour, yogurt, or spices, which might mean using less of the cake mix.

* Smaller cakes: If you are making a smaller cake, you may not need the entire box of mix. You might find recipes that specifically say how much of the box to use for smaller cakes.

Ultimately, always check the recipe you are using to see how much cake mix is needed.
