Soda Cake Recipes

Most of the time, when baking a cake, you add water maybe milk. Did you ever think to add soda? Well I want to share with you some ideas on cakes that you can incorporate soda into the recipe. The soda can be added to your cake mix, or even incorporated into your frosting. It can be added to gelatin and poured into poked holes of your cake as well. Sometimes the only ingredients for your cake may be the mix and the soda. So let's get started.

  

The first is called a ice cream float cake. All you need is your favorite white cake mixture and your soda choice. Coke or orange, or even root beer work well for this. In three round cake pans pour your batter in thin layers. After your cake is cooked it is time to put it together. Between each layer spread vanilla ice cream. Then frost your cake with marshmallow frosting. Decorate with some candy that has flavor, such as root beer barrel candy.

Next is a soda cake with a soda frosting. This is a pineapple cake made with pineapple soda. While you bake your cake make your frosting. Cook a cup of pineapple soda and reduce to a syrup consistency. Let the soda cool and then add some confection sugar until you get a frosting consistency, then add a tsp of vanilla and a tsp of yellow food coloring to your sugar mixture. In another bowl whip one package of cream cheese with a stick of butter, incorporate this into your sugar mixture and then frost away. You can top your cake with some toasted coconut and some maraschino cherries.

You can make your own gourmet cakes by matching your cake flavor with your soda flavor.

Have fun with your cake and be creative.
