Mayonnaise is, basically, just egg yolks and oil stirred up with an emulsion blender. Pretty much standard cake ingredients.

That’s just cause y’all be not cleaning your hands after handling skunk lure ….

I grew up in mayonnaise cake. Mom made one about once a week. Always had white frosting though. Thanks for bringing back the memory wolfdog

Tough to beat a chocolate mayonnaise cake, been eating em my whole life.

Never tried it but some of the baking experts say that the mayo cakes stay moister than non. Which kinda makes sense as it's basically just emulsified oil and eggs. Don't use Miracle Whip..

Had it once, didn't care for it, but it might have been the baker....

and mayonnaise is good, miracle whip is not.

I agree!

Y'all don't like the sound of mayo in cakes, but the most common frosting for cakes is "crisco".

Mayo has everything a cake usually has in it egg, oil. Not seeing what would be the big deal lol just a little extra moisture. It's not for flavor it's for the extra moisture

When it comes to Mayonnaise I have 2 choices.#1 Hellmans #2 none at all

Yes they are

Miracle Whip is the bomb.. mayo comes from an intimate monkey.

That's the way things are at our house too upstateNY.

Hellmans was the go to mayo for years, now we can get Duke, now it's a toss up....

As long as it's not miracle whip.

That's the only cake I will eat the rest is too dry for me

Miracle whip is great on ham and cheese loaf lunch meat and chicken nuggets

Yep, chocolate mayonnaise cake was a once a week thing at our house when I was a kid. Pretty sure I never knew you could even buy a "cake in a box" until I was in my teens.

Miracle whip all the way!!!

Yep , my grandma made it. I don’t like it, because I can taste mayonnaise in it and I don’t like mayonnaise.
