We are a sober household so I wondered if there was a suggested substitute for the white wine. Maybe white grape juice? That seems to be the online consensus but I can only find cooking and not baking examples. Would this work?
It should work with white grape juice, but you might want to cut back a bit on the sugar in the recipe since the grape juice will be sweeter than most wines.
This recipe was formulated while Jaime was still residing in the US. US cake mixes are not so readily available in Israel, possibly in TelAviv. I’m making up my own simple white cake [formula has that has only 6 ingredients. I will then be adding Jaime’s ingredients to make up the Sugar Dusted Wine Cake. Try using Barkan’s Chardonnay wine for the cake and to enjoy with a piece of the cake once its baked.
There is some major differences. They use 1/4 cup of white wine while Jaime uses 1 cup white wine. They use 3/4 water while Jaime replaced that in her formula with 1 cup of wine covering the water content. They use 1/4 brown & white sugar and Jaime uses but 1/3 cup white sugar. Jaime uses 4oz of vanilla pudding and they use 3oz. They use 3/4 vegetable oil (HEAVY) and Jaime uses 1/2 Canola oil (lighter. They use 2 tsp of Cinnamon and Jaime uses 1 tsp Cinnamon & 1/2 tsp Nutmeg do you want me to go on? Jaime’s has a far superior taste and texture.

is icing sugar confectionary sugar??
Should work okay.
can you use yellow cake mix as the white ones are dairy
