Many people have turned to baking to keep busy and raise their spirits during the lockdown. It’s a fun way to keep the children entertained, even if they sneakily help themselves to the chocolate chips when you’re not looking, and is very rewarding when the whole family gets to dig-in to a tasty cake fresh out of the oven. With this in mind, Betty Crocker would love for you to share a picture of the cakes and bakes that you have made with your family.

Here’s what Betty Crocker has to say: “Betty Crocker is a cultural icon and is part of families’ traditions and get together. She has been a trusted source of flavoursome recipes and homebaking know-how for 100 years. With a delicious cake guaranteed every time, Betty enables families to focus on what really matters, spending quality time together baking or enjoying a sweet treat.”

Whether you prefer to keep it simple and use a Betty Crocker cake mix, follow an old family recipe passed down through the generations or make it up as you go along, take a picture of the cake or bake that you have made with your family and post it on this thread.

This competition is open to all Mumsnetters so get that apron on and your oven pre-heating. We’ll be randomly selecting one lucky MNer who posts a picture of their beautiful bake on this thread to win a £200 Amazon voucher - perfect for stocking up on all your baking essentials!

Thanks and good luck!

An Adipose birthday cake for my little Doctor Who fan (the icing was salted caramel buttercream and it was meant to be lumpy because the Adipose live on human fat - DD Was very specific about her requirements! 😄)

Yummy!!

I had never bought packet mixes till this virus hit and I stocked up on more types of food than usual.

I am really impressed by Betty Crocker toppings. We've got the chocolate one and chocolate fudge - amazing!!

Would-be wedding cake 😂 Thankfully we already have a family together and weren't planning on having a crazy wedding, so we just had a celebration for our anniversary with the knowledge that we will formalise once lockdown is over.
We both had a layer with our fave filling.. vanilla buttercream for me, Nutella cream for him. Older son helped with the icing.
We froze a couple of slices for our actual day.

Too late. All that's left of the latest batch of banana bread is crumbs.

Me and my Dd (14) made this Persian love cake. Thought we’d try something a little different- flavours were rose, lemon and pistachio. Was lovely!!

My husband is a fan of the Betty Crocker chocolate cake so I have made a couple of variations over the last few years and I used the same mix to make the Maltesers cake for my Dad's 70th last year.

I made these chocolate cupcakes with my 5 year old. He loved decorating his own with the icing pens!

We made these. I kept one for myself and sat down with a cup of tea and read through mumsnet classics later in the evening. It was the best night I have had for ages!
