    Delicious and cheap don't go hand in hand. Your parameters are unrealistic. Cakes aren't easy either. Baking is a science. You really need to know what you're doing. Quick is subjective. Do you consider 40 minutes or more to bake a cake "quick"? Having said that, most of the ingredients you need to bake a cake are relatively inexpensive. Buying ready made cakes can be expensive. Many cakes can be put together in a relatively short time frame, but baking can take upwards of an hour. Then there's the cooling time and frosting [if desired]. White Picnic Cake w. Fresh Raspberries Ingredients 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup unsalted butter 2 whole eggs 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract 1 1/2 cups flour 1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons whole milk 1 cup of your favorite frosting, optional 8 ounces fresh raspberries, picked over, rinsed and dried Method Preheat oven to 350° Grease and flour a 9 x 9 inch pan or line a muffin pan with paper liners. In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder, add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Finally stir in the milk until batter is smooth. Pour or spoon batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes. For cupcakes, bake 20 to 25 minutes. Cake is done when it springs back to the touch. Frost as desired. Arrange raspberries over top of cake Cake Tip: For a cake bottom that is as moist at the frosting-covered top, turn the cake out of the pan once it has cooled. Put the cake back in the pan upside-down. Now the moist cake top will be on the bottom, and the bottom of the cake, which can be dry, will be on top and covered with delicious moist frosting.
