Be honest — did I have you at “waffle cake?”
Admittedly, I don’t know how I didn’t think of this sooner. After so many years of experimenting with my waffle iron, it seems like I should have hit on making a waffle cake ages ago!
But we’re here now, and there’s no going back.

Reasons to Love Waffle Cake
I mean, not that I need to convince you, but just in case you need some reasons…
Waffle cake is instant gratification! No waiting for a cake to bake and wondering if it’s going to come out right.
It’s also easier to stack than a traditional layer cake; no need to even out the layers or worry whether it will tip over.
And finally (although I could go on forever), you can make it in any flavor that you usually make your cakes! We’re using Funfetti here but any cake batter will work.
Can You Use Cake Mix In a Waffle Maker?
Absolutely you can!
In fact, we’ve put all kinds of things in our waffle maker over the years — pizza dough, tortillas, donuts, and more.
The consistency of your Funfetti cake mix may be a little different than the waffle batter that you’re used to, so give it a test run just in case.
If the batter is thicker, it will spread more slowly and you may need to help it move to the edges of the waffle maker with a spatula or the back of your spoon.
Conversely, if it’s thinner than you’re accustomed to, spoon it out slowly so that it doesn’t run everywhere unexpectedly.
And in case you’re wondering, here’s the waffle maker we used for this recipe.

Ingredients You’ll Need
Ingredients for our Funfetti waffle cake are pretty simple! Here’s what you’ll need.
Ingredients
- 1 box Funfetti cake mix
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- cooking spray
- whipped frosting
- whipped cream
- sprinkles

How to Make a Funfetti Waffle Cake
Make Time: 20 Minutes
- In a bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs. Beat until smooth.
- Heat your waffle iron and spritz with cooking spray. Spoon in the cake mixture until the waffle iron is about 2/3 covered. Close the lid and let the waffle cook. Once cooked, remove carefully with a spatula and fork.
- Repeat Step 2, making about 6-7 waffles.
- On a cake stand, place your first waffle. Spread a thin layer of frosting on the top. Stack another waffle and frost. Continue stacking and frosting until your final waffle is on top; leave this one unfrosted.
- When you’re ready to serve, cover the top of the cake with whipped cream and sprinkles. Cut into slices and enjoy!
