This cake was a hit at my son's birthday party! He loves orange, so I put orange food coloring in there too. Very pretty. The "crunch" layer was a nice addition and the fruit on top was perfect.

We LOVED this cake. It was light and so delightful. I will make this again and again. Everyone raved about it. I made it exactly as it is written, and the only thing I would suggest is to let the icing set up in the fridge for about an hour before frosting. It was a little soft and a tad hard to frost the sides.

I made this cake for the office and i still hear about this cake everytime we get together... Its an awsome recipe! i like the crunchy texture and the fruit flavor in it! I didn't use tube forsting i made home made creamcheese frosting and added the whip cream and orange zest to it!! outstanding!!

This was just delicious. I think next time I'll add more orange zest, but aside from that this was yummy. The brown sugar, nut and graham cracker mixture would be good wih any flavor cake.. chocolate, lemon, spice..

Absolutely wonderful!

WOW So Good!!! I made this for my husbands birthday and he actually said it was the best cake he had ever had. Bake in 13 x 9 pan though mine cracked while in the fridge but it did not matter because it was so delicious.

love it!!!

This cake was delicious!! I made as a sheet cake and loved it! A new favorite.

This was a great cake! I heard a lot of rave reviews from my coworkers. I didn't use the frosting provided with this recipe, but I did everything else as stated. Perfect for summer.

I have been using it since 1984. Fair is Fair. Give the proper people credit for it. It is a recipe from Pillsbury which appeared in a magazine in 1984. I still have the original cut out from the magazine and it is well worn from many years of use. It is a great recipe from Pillsbury.

This was a huge hit with my family. Moist, yummy, and easy to make!

At a recent family dinner I made this cake. In attendance was a former Bakery Chef who thought this was one of the best cakes she had every had! Everyone is still raving about this cake. This will be coming along with me to many events!

Delicious! The crunch layer really does make this cake! I did use prepared frosting, even though some reviewers didn't like it, and I thought it still tasted great. I used lime zest in the frosting because I didn't have any lemons. This one is definately a keeper!

This was hit at easter! I put the crunch layer in the middle only. I didn't have the correct ingredients for the frosting so I just added some orange juice and orange zest to some vanilla frosting - turned out great!

This cake is great with Sour Cream Frosting (also a 5 star) I prefer to leave the crunch side down. Either way, it's a fabulous cake. Enjoy!

The cake and the crunch layers of this cake are delicious and I will make this recipe again. However, I think I will do something different for the icing. The use of canned icing and whipped topping results in something very artificial and waxy tasting to me. I think a whipped cream cheese frosting with the citrus zest would probably be good. Also, I made this in a 9x13 pan instead of layers, turning it out to cool on a wire rack after 15 minutes cooling in the pan and then putting it back in the 9x13 with the crunch layer on top after it was completely cooled. Very tasty and the crunchy nut layer is a prize-winner!

Not sure where she got the recipe, but mama makes this cake and it's amaaaazing. I don't consider "Fruity desserts" as true DESSERT... to me, it has to be CHOCOLATE!!! So I enjoy this cake anytime, for any reason, for any meal, and think it tastes best cold... but I'm a cold-cake kind of girl. Enjoy it!
