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 to decorate 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 with 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!

Easy Dessert Ideas

This cake is super simple and you can make it in any kind of pan.

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

Cake Mixes

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.

I also love the fact this cake slices so easily like a pound cake.

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.
