My niece makes this cake, and instead of making it with boiling water, she uses coffee! I tried it, and it is wonderful!!

In reply to Clarissa. It was about 6 cups for me, when I was doing my layers, I measured out the amount and it was just shy of 6 cups.

Hi Lucila – yes, you will need to make additional changes. Here’s a helpful guide https://cityhomecountryhome.blogspot.com/2010/08/high-altitude-baking-and-candy-making.html

Hi. I live at 7000ft and was wondering if there were more adjustments for high altitude I should make or if it’d be the same as at 5000ft?

In reply to Elizabeth Quiroz. Hi Elizabeth - probably about 30 minutes, until the cake starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, a toothpick comes out clean and about 210°F on an instant-read thermometer.

I don’t have any round cake pans. If I use a 9×13, how long would you recommend baking?

In reply to Laura Turner.

Hi Laura – if you use 8 inch rounds your cook time will be longer because they’ll be thicker but shouldn’t need additional high altitude adjustments. You’ll probably need 3 6 inch rounds.
