Fresh Blueberry Cake Mix Cake

This fresh blueberry cake mix cake is so quick and easy and tastes just like it was made from scratch.

I love doctored cake mix cakes and this with the addition of fresh blueberries and a hint of lemon makes all the difference in flavor.

Sometimes when you get caught off guard and need something quick in a pinch, it's hard to come up with a great recipe.

This is perfect for cupcakes, sheet cakes, bundt cakes, or just in a springform pan like I used decorated elegantly.

Save a few extra to decorate the top and you will turn this ordinary cake into a beautiful addition to any dessert table.

We love making easy cakes with a cake mix and fooling everyone it's not from scratch.

I have made delicious Sour Cream Coffee Cupcakes using a cake mix, cookies, and even a Scrumptious Banana Cake Mix Cake that all taste like they were from scratch!

We even love using cookie mixes for great chocolate chip cheesecake bars!

It can be transformed into a beautiful cake or served plain with a dollop of whipped cream on top or dusted with powdered sugar.

The cake is moist and the berries give it the perfect balance.


I prefer to use a good brand name cake and also switch flavors now and then.


Blueberry and spice cake go well together also, the cinnamon is a nice flavor change.

Topped with whipped cream and fruit is a summertime favorite dessert.


You can even add strawberries and blueberries for a patriotic look for a holiday-themed cake.
