PARSIPPANY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Two American baking icons, Duncan Hines® and Wilton®, are joining forces to introduce the new Duncan Hines Wilton Decorator’s Choice Yellow Cake Mix that is sure to make cake decorating…well, a piece of cake! The Decorator’s Choice Yellow Cake Mix is an optimized recipe for a smooth cake that has less potential for the frustrating issues of cracking and crumbing.
Consumers who bake and decorate seek two key requirements in their cakes: limited crumbing and limited cracking to ensure smooth frosting application. Realizing this insight, Duncan Hines, known for delivering high-quality cakes, and Wilton, the number one cake decorating brand, decided it was time to come up with a solution that meets decorators’ needs and improves on already existing products.
“Both Duncan Hines and Wilton are committed to listening to our consumers,” commented Fran Hinckley, senior director of marketing, Duncan Hines. “When the opportunity arose to bring to market a cake mix that would make cake frosting and stacking easier, we immediately collaborated to develop this new product to help bakers.”
The new Decorator’s Choice Yellow Cake Mix has been tested by consumers who love to bake and decorate. It delivers a delicious, made-for-decorating cake that addresses the common issues of crumbing and cracking. The Decorator’s Choice Yellow Cake Mix expands Duncan Hines and Wilton’s portfolios to offer consumers a delicious cake mix by two trusted brands in baking and decorating.
Duncan Hines and Wilton’s Decorator’s Choice Yellow Cake Mix are available at retailers nationwide, with a suggested retail price of $2.99.
