hi well i never knew that they had that!!

Hi, thats so strange that I saw that question about the boxed frostings, I use to love the one that made this great fluffy frosting, it was like 7 minute frosting. I think it called for boiling water... I live on the Canadian boarder and have also looked for it in Canada.. No luck... bummer huh ?

Every once in awhile in odd ball grocery stores I have found it. Krogers was one of them.When I find it I buy quite afew of them.

I am also new to this site and can't answer your question, but would like to echo your question.  WHY can't we have the 'old' frosting mix-in-a-box like we used to?!?! They tasted so much better... not so 'artificial flavorish'....... the German Choc. frosting in a box was SO much better than the kind in the little round container!!

I have learned to use the electric mixer on the container frosting before spreading it on the cake... makes it lighter and seems to make it go further.

  Haven't thought of this product for years! My Grandmother even made a candy out of the vanilla frosting. Almost like divinity. It would be a very nice change. Since the cans never seem to have enough frosting to do a batch of cupcakes.

I too would like to see the box mixes make a come-back.  The German Chocolate frosting was our favorite as we used the recipe on the side of the box using whipping creme - mmmmmmm good!!!  I do hope there is enough demand to see them back on the shelf.  We don't care for the canned frosting either and end up using powdered sugar for a homemade frosting flavor.

There still making the homestyle frosting mix in a box :)

I just tried to do a product serach on it- with out any luck- but you can always contact customer service and ask if it's in your area. Good luck on your search! Sincerely, CC

If you notice the link you gave is the link to the Fluffy white whipped frosting in a can NOT the homestyle frosting mix.Here is what it looks like (it's a blue box that you add boiling water to it and beat in a mixer).

I have looked on the webstie and it cannot be found. Obviously no one at Betty Crocker knows what this frosting is because I've already contacted customer service and they claim you can find it which is untrue.  My grandmother used to make all my birthday cakes using it. I still love it!!!! The only way I can now find it is to buy it in bulk online from amazon which is silly because who is going to use an entire case of frosting in a year?! Will Betty Crocker please start making it again??

Shopgirl, Betty Cocker does still make the Fluffy White Frosting in a box.  If your grocery store doesn't carry it, ask the manager to order it for you.  That has worked many times for me for different items. 

Amazon sells a case of 12 boxes, but they also sell a case with just 6 boxes.  You can order it here:

The General Mills online store sells 2 boxes or 12 boxes.  You can order it here:

YES - I can only find mine on web sites like Amazon.  But it is delicious and buying by the case is fine.  They last long.  I don't know why I can not find them in any Philadphia area grocery store ot baking supple store?????

I have e-mailed Betty Crocker customer service twice to ask why is it difficult to find and why is it not even shown on thier web site. ( they really need to updaye their web site for products).  Their customer service have never replied to me????

I'm new also, and I just joined looking for info on the fluffy white frosting.  It's always been a big favorite with my family especially on angel food cake.  It's been out of the stores forever.  About 10 years ago I ordered a case of it online and am down to my last box.  Why doesn't this site carry it for order any longer?  There is nothing worth putting on angel food cake out there, it's all so heavy and rich.  Both the fluffy white and angel food cake are fat free, the can stuff isn't.  I wish they'd bring boxed frostings back, if not in the stores, at least orderable online.

Special4K5: Check the link above to see if it's anywhere in your area. If not, talk to your supermarket manager about ordering some. If not- I've heard others order the frosting off of amazon.com, etc.

Thank you so much.  It was available at Amazon.com and I am ordering it as we speak.  I will still talk to supermarket, but I haven't seen it on shelves in so many years.

I would also like to see the frostings in the box come back.  I don't like the ones in the can either...Yuck!!!  I have resorted to using powdered sugar to make my own frosting.  Glad to know there are others out there that feel the same way.  Let's hope Betty Crocker will be the one to bring them back.

I am a man that is trying to find  home style fluffy white mix also plesae inform me as to where i can get it   ****************

Agreed.  I haven't seen it in awhile, but I liked it, too!  It's been a family favorite.

To all of you looking for the boxed 7 minute frosting, my sister who lives in Louisville, KY just recently found it at Kroger.  I live in Charlotte, NC and have looked for it here to no avail.  In fact my sister is mailing me a couple of boxes.  Hopefully, I'll be able to convince a grocer here to start stocking it.  My mother also used to make this frosting.  My sister says it's almost as good as mom's! 

The only frosting in a box mixes i have found are made by Jiffy brand.  They are small blue boxes very inexpensive in the baking aisle.
