Otzi: The Cake Mix That Took 45 Tries to Perfect
Your grocery store favorite, reimagined with good grains—minus the junk.
Honestly, if you want great results in the kitchen, you've got to take control. And that’s exactly what we did with Otzi’s “The 45”—a yellow cake mix that’ll make you rethink store-bought forever. It wasn’t easy, but after 45 grueling attempts, we finally nailed the perfect balance of taste, texture, and quality. No shortcuts, no junk, just an indulgent, buttery cake mix that’s ready to elevate your baking game.
What Makes “The 45” Different?
Sure, you could pick up any old cake mix off the grocery store shelf—but do you really want all that corn syrup and processed junk? The 45 changes the game with a blend of modern, heirloom, and ancient grains. It delivers all the nostalgic flavors of a classic yellow cake but with the nutritional punch of grains like soft white wheat, hard red wheat, and einkorn.
It’s moist, buttery, and just the right kind of birthday-sweet—without the sugar rush. And with 7.3% protein, you’re getting something more substantial than your average cake mix fluff.
Why It Took 45 Tries
Here’s the thing: heirloom and ancient grains don’t behave like the over-processed bleached flours you’re used to. They’re packed with nutrients, which is great—but they require more precision to achieve the perfect taste and texture. We didn’t want just another cake mix. We wanted one that could match the convenience of a store-bought option but with superior ingredients.
It took 45 trials to get it right, but we’re proud to say that effort paid off. We’ve cracked the code for a cake mix that brings flavor, texture, and a clean ingredient list. You won’t find any corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, or artificial flavors here—just real ingredients like cane sugar, cassava starch, and almond powder.
Perfect for Any Occasion
The 45 isn’t just for birthdays (though it’s perfect for them). Whether you’re making a cake for a bake sale, piping your personal masterpiece, or even having a “bake-off” with yourself at home, this mix is versatile enough for every occasion. Breakups? Got you covered too. A good slice of cake can fix anything.
Why Settle for Less?
Too many bakers settle for mediocre results, thinking it’s the best they can do. But not you. If you want to bring something exceptional to the table, you need to use exceptional ingredients—and Otzi’s “The 45” is your new go-to for yellow cake. You’ll taste the difference, and so will everyone else.
Stop settling for bland. Pick up The 45, and take control of your baking game—because great results don’t happen by accident.
