Come on every Betty, let’s take a look back at some of the most popular cakes from every decade. We may be 100 years old, but these cakes are timeless. Just don’t ask us to pick a favorite, that’s too hard.
Betty Crocker turns 100 this year! To celebrate, I’m covering the history of Betty Crocker and her famous cake mix. We’ll talk about Betty Crocker’s origins, how she transitioned from the voice of a flour company to her own brand, and how she popularized cake mixes. – The Vintage Company
Happy birthday, indeed! I remember my mother faithfully clipping the coupons on the outside of the Betty Crocker cake mix boxes and saving them until she had enough to buy flatware, which my dad still uses today. Happy birthday, Betty, and thanks for being a delicious part of our family for so many years.
What!?!?!
A hundred years of this straight subservient cis gendered white female!!!
Canceled. It’s coming
Betty Crocker didn’t kill herself.
“Ah Yes”
Going back…I’m a kid coming home from school,walk through the door at home,smell something good,my stay at home mom has been making treats.
I just got triggered! I need a safe space!
Betty Crockers got big knockers
I’m not white – you need pie!
That reminds me… whutever happened to Lady Kenmore?
A) Kevinator!
Have only ever eaten it if someone else makes it. Tastes fine to me but I remember my grandma’s (both). I and my sister like still making ours from scratch. I think it helps us remember better times because it’s what remember fondly. Hers is better but people don’t pass on mine either. And admittedly canned frosting saves a lot of dirty dishes.
And what’s amazing is she’s still going strong. Not only that, she doesn’t age! She even gets younger over time:

Why is it okay to put white women on food boxes but putting black people on a box and the angry left says it’s stereotyping?
I grew up on Betty Crocker cake. I handled my mother’s estate sale after she died. Being stoic in nature I was unemotional about her death until when going through the kitchen pots and pans I reached in a lower cupboard and pulled out the pan which I remembered her using to bake my birthday cakes. A jolt of energy literally shot through me and it caused me to weep uncontrollably.
Oh, Billy, that even made me cry!
I just made a pumpkin pie using my 1950’s Betty Crocker cook book. And one of my stand-by’s is Betty’s “Fluffy Meat Loaf” recipe.
I sure do remember BC’s cake mixes as a kid, too! Yum!
If you are in a pinch, look up her “Emergency Steak”
Hamburger with carrots to make a T-bone steak, to feed the boss.
She was great and so is her food.
My cookbook says “White Bread Recipes” by Betty Cracker…
Anyone ever made one of those Ritz cracker fake apple pies?
Somebody needs find a way to share recipes here. Bet theres a lot of recipes to be tried in this bunch.
