This cake was good. I used the strawberry jello and cream cheese pudding. I will say that the fat grams listed for the cake are wrong. If you mix the cake as directed there is 14 grams of fat per serving. Not sure once you add the milk and pudding, etc. But it's sure a lot more than 2.6.

was great... I used strawberry jello and vanilla pudding, and added a little strawberry extract to the icing... turned out awesome.

Can't be simpler. It a jello poke cake, but everyone goes crazy for it at my parties - they actually ask me to make it! I do use rick's buttercream frosting with it from this site and do two 9 by 13 cakes - one in a strawberry the other a lime this time I'm going to try lime and grape and use a cream cheese pudding mix in the middle. Thanks

A fan-favorite. Experiment greatly with the jell-o and pudding, and don't be afraid to put more jell-o in the cake.

I'm sorry, but I did follow this recipe exactly and it was not too good. It tasted more like a pre-packaged cake than a homemade recipe from grandma to me, though others seem to have enjoyed it.

I feel bad to give this lower rating, but I didn't personally like this cake. I didn't change anything about the recipe and I found it to be a little bland. I may try it again by using some of the suggestions of changes people have posted.

This recipe is even better if you use a lemon cake mix instead of a white cake mix

This cake was so easy to make! I followed someone else's suggestion for strawberry gelatin and cheesecake pudding and it came out tasting so great! Everyone loved it! Leftovers tasted even better.

We do a Birthday cake exchange at work, & this was the first time I made this cake for that. I don't like lime jello, so I did cherry instead. It was a very big hit! Made a very moist good cake with a frosting that wasn't too sweet. Will make again.
