There is a cookbook available that has ONLY recipes off the backs of packages and boxes.. a bigger bookstore might be able to search and give you the name of it.

Thank you so very much for your responses. In this recipe the coffee was in the cake batter, it was an un-iced, unfilled cake. I used a light powdered glaze and drizzled it. I've got all the backs of jars and boxes cookbooks and neither website of the sugar comanies helped. thanks again for the feedback.

My version of Harvest Pecan Cake: use 2 Tablespoons of coffee with 3 Tablespoons of hot water and substitute walnuts for pecans. A tradition at my house. It's the only cake I bake!
