Notes
Duncan Hines has changed the size of their cake mix packages considerably and unfortunately, this has affected many old-fashioned recipes that relied on them. I have heard of more than one of these cakes sinking in the middle as a result. I tested several remedies to this and found that if I purchased an extra box of cake mix and added an additional 1/2 cup of mix to this recipe, it works as it did before. I save the rest of that cake mix in a zipper seal bag, put it back down in the box, and store it in my closet for the next time I want to make one of these cakes.
I couldn't find apricot nectar so I used mango nectar. If you see strawberry banana nectar, try getting the strawberry supreme cake mix for another twist!
