I made this with a spice cake mix, put some fresh blackberries in it and did not spray the bowl. I did turn it out onto a cake and let it cool slightly because my topping was melting. It did not stick to the bowl, I just ran a knife around the edge and it popped right out. It has a really fresh taste and is just enough. If you're thinking it's like a regular tasting cake, it is NOT. It's like a light sponge cake and is just enough for a nice dessert. My husband loves it as well and has his with a little ice cream. I can't wait to try other flavors but two boxes of mix is alot of cake! Thanks to whoever posted this to start with.
