"The Golden Butter was hands down the tastiest of all the other mixes. This could be because it is the only cake mix we tried that used butter instead of vegetable oil, which gave it an unfair advantage in taste, texture, and quality. We used salted European butter to make it, which amped up the flavor even more. The result was cupcakes that were soft, buttery, and moist - and that tasted perfectly homemade."
"The addition of real butter to the mix added a more complex flavor, as well as a softer texture and a perfect crumb. The tops of the cupcakes formed in delightfully spongy, fluffy rounds that would have been perfect for frosting. Whether you're looking for a cake mix that is perfect as-is, or want one you can dress up with custom add-ins or toppings, Golden Butter is the obvious choice."

Pillsbury Moist Supreme Golden Butter mix ranked highest due to using butter rather than vegetable oil, producing cupcakes with more complex flavor, softer texture, perfect crumb, and moistness. Salted European butter was used to amplify flavor. Cupcake tops were spongy and fluffy, suitable for frosting.
