This is exciting! And seems like it will be somewhat of a challenge for me (since I'm very simple when it comes to cake/cake mixes). I do have a question, though... where can I buy grenadine??? And am I to add actual Champagne to the recipe?? Sorry if I sound like a dingy ( I do have my dumb-blonde moments, at times.... I'm what's referred to as a "toasted blonde" LOL!)
Thanks ladies! :-)

Do you know if the alcohol in the Champagne is cooked out? I cook with wine which does, but have never added it to a cake recipe. {I have a son who cannot have alcohol due to medication he takes.} Thanks

Grenadine should be around the liquor section. It is not alchol, but it is used in drinks to make them red. When I was a kid, I would order a Shirley Temple (7up and cherries) and it would come from the bar because they used Grenadine.
Yes you add it to the cake batter. You don't have to get the most expensive Champagne either. Strawberry hill is not champgane, but I have had my fair share of that too!!!!!
As far as the champagne cooking out. Jeri needs to answer that one, but I would think it would. I will ask her and let you guys know.

Debbie, take a look at this. If this info is correct I don't think it is fully baked out

Debbie, if you don't want to use the champagne you may get the same effect with some sort of sparkling juice. There are non alchol alternitives to champagne. If you alter anything in the reciepe, remember to tell us what you did. Others may want to do the same thing. I plan on making mine and sending to the Teachers at my daughter's school while they are preparing their classrooms before the students get there on the 12th... I can't believe the school year is about to start back, where has this summer gone.

Thanks Deah and Gretchen. After reading the artical I'm not sure I'll be adding wine to my sauce or stews anymore, even though they cook for a few hours..
Gretchen thanks for the reminder about sparkling juices. My sister used those for her wedding, will check them out when shopping..
