Make your boxed cake better

Have you noticed the shrinkage of boxed cake mix in the last 10 years from 18.25 ounces to the current 15.25 ounces. It affects my recipes. My cakes weren’t as good. I found you can add texture back to your cake and have less shrinkage by adding 6 tablespoons of all purpose flour to the box mix and whisk it together.
