Creative Cake in a Mugs

Customize your own cozy indulgence with our cake in a mug mixes by adding your favourite jams, nuts, and choc chips.

Liquids

A general rule is that you can replace half or all the water in the regular recipe (2 tablespoons) with a different liquid - like juice, coffee or spirits.

Add-ins

Mix in about a tablespoon of choc chips, berries, chopped fresh or frozen fruit, sprinkles or nuts after adding the liquids.

Extras

For other extras like nutella or jam - add about a tablespoon in the centre after you’ve mixed the cake mix and liquid.
