Made this recipe with strawberry jello, and it came out great. I did take the advise of other reviewers and only used one cup of water with the jello. The cake was awesome and the kids, and the hubby really enjoyed it. Will try this recipe again using other jello flavors!

I was thrilled with this cake, as was everyone @ work. I used all Lemon: cake,pudding,Jello-O. Cut the water for gelatin to 1 cup. Let topping set in refrig while cake/gelatin chilled. covered with topping,chilled overnight. I can't wait to try this in all the flavors that others mentioned. It was easy to make, tasted great! Not too sweet. I will make this many times. Thanks for sharing.

This is a great recipe, very similar to my mother-in-law's recipe for lemon lime sheet cake. The lemon lime version is as follows: Used Lime jello instead of lemon to pour over the cake (also use less water: 3/4C hot and 1/2C cold). Make sure jello mix is room temp before pouring over cake. For the topping blend with hand mixer in glass bowl: 1 1/2 C cold milk 1 envelope dry whip topping mix (Dream Whip) 1 pkg lemon jello Blend 3-8 min until stiff peaks form. Frost cake and refridgerate. TO DIE FOR. My husband requests this cake often. Just make sure your beaters and mixing bowl are cold.

Quick, easy and DELICIOUS! Like another reviewer, I used yellow cake and strawberry jello instead. The cake turned out perfectly - Moist, light and not too sweet or rich! To save even more time next time, I'll try using strawberry flavored Cool Whip for the topping.

i made a strawberry version with yellow cake, strawberry jello, and vanilla pudding. everyone loved it. i brought it to a birthday party and a family dinner. it makes a really good summer cake. the only negative is that the jello mix makes the whipped topping kind of harden.

I made this last night and it was pretty good. I think it would be BEST on a really hot summer's day. The reason I gave it a 4-star it's because it was not as 'rich' tasting as I imagined, maybe next time I will add a bit of sugar to it, I did add about 1 teaspoon of vanilla, thought it gave it a bit of a zing! I also used EXTRA creamy whipped topping. Over all, it was good for the family plus real easy to make. PS, if you're pressed for time and want to eat dessert before it's too late, put it in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes. :-)

Tasted good, simple and easy. There was WAY too much icing (I didn't even end up using it all on the cake). I will probably make this again, but not for a while... very rich.

Incredibly moist and delicious cake! Hubby absolutely loved it! I made the following modifications: used a white cake mix since I couldn't find lemon; sugar-free, fat-free white chocolate pudding mix; sugar-free Cool Whip. I also would prefer to have found sugar-free Lemon jello, but couldn't. After reading other reviews, I cut the water down to 1-1/2 cups total. Delicious!

I love this cake. I made it for a Pot Luck at work and everybody loved it. The pudding makes it super moist. I did used 1/2 hot water and 1/2 cold water, like somebody here suggested and it intensified the lemon flavor, which it was great. The second time I made it I used only half of the lemon gelatin box and it made the topping taste less sweet which it complemented very well the moist cake...very Summery! Thanks for this great recipe. ;)

I could only give it 4 stars bc bot everyone in my house liked it. My kids loved it and my husband did not care for it too much. Personally I loved the simplicity, the cost, and the taste.

My brother loves anything orange, so I decided to make this recipe for our family July 4th cookout, with a couple of modifications. I used orange gelatin and only 1 cup of hot water for the cake, and lemon pudding and orange gelatin for the topping. I decorated it with canned mandarin oranges. It was very moist and would have been soggy with any more water in it. It was very attractive with the orange icing and tasted refreshing, my family liked it.

OUTSTANDING! I made this for my father in law who has a heart condition -- I used sugar free jello, fat free pudding, fat free cool whip, and made the cake with applesauce instead of oil. Needless to say, he alone at 3 pieces after a huge dinner, and the rest of us had 2 each! A GREAT receipe, easy and perfect for the summer. This was one of the best recipes I've found! Am already planning to make it again, and again, and again, and again..................
