Notes

  • Recipe Notes:
  • Quantity - This recipe makes 1.5 cups of cake goop. You can increase or decrease this recipe based on the amount needed. One tablespoon of cake goop will generally coat one 9-inch cake pan.
  • Recipe variations - You can substitute the three basic ingredients of this recipe based on your preferences. I've listed a few of my favorites below as well. 

    Butter Cake Goop - Use softened butter instead of shortening. Make sure to refrigerate for the best shelf life.  Coconut Oil Cake Goop - Use coconut oil instead of shortening. Gluten-Free Cake Goop - Use your favorite gluten-free flour.  Chocolate Cake Goop - Use 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup cocoa powder.

  • Butter Cake Goop - Use softened butter instead of shortening. Make sure to refrigerate for the best shelf life. 
  • Coconut Oil Cake Goop - Use coconut oil instead of shortening.
  • Gluten-Free Cake Goop - Use your favorite gluten-free flour. 
  • Chocolate Cake Goop - Use 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup cocoa powder.
  • Storage - Cake Goop lasts 3 months in an airtight container in the pantry and 6 months in the refrigerator. If made with butter, be sure to store in the refrigerator and the shelf life will be reduced to 3 months.
