Soooo good!! I tried to make this a bit lighter by using Lite Cool Whip and Less Sugar cake mix. This is now my favorite cake!

I used a homemade yellow cake batter and added the mandarin oranges with juice, and it made the most delicious, moist cake! Paired with the luscious and light icing, the cake layers were absolute perfection!

This is a great cake. I didn't think there was enough liquid for the cake so I put the juice of the oranges in a measuring cup and added pineapple juice to equal 1 cup, and it turned out great. I baked it in a 9x13 pan so it would be easier to take to my in-laws. I also put pecans on top of the frosting. Next time I will try some coconut in the frosting. It is a great summertime dessert. Everybody loved it. Thanks for the recipe.

By mistake I used a pineapple cake mix but everyone raved about this cake. It was very good and so easy. Also presents great for parties etc... Next time I want to make it with the yellow cake mix but the pineapple was very good.

i accidentally added the pudding mix portion into the cake part (luckily i had an extra for the frosting) and it was extremely moist. incredibly tasty, i think i'll add some other kinds of canned fruit next time.

5 Stars! Don't change a thing! This recipe has been in my family for generations. It is a staple at any good southern get together and a must have at Pig Pickin's. This is also the same recipe Paula Deen uses. My Grandma was using it well before anyone knew of Paula Deen though!

The frosting is really good but the cake...well, it just tastes like a cake mix. Not a WOW recipe.

Great cake to bring along. I am not a fan of the ingredients in the processed topping and used 10 ounces of heavy cream, whipped it, added sugar free instant pudding, cheesecake flavor, the can of crushed pineapple and it was soooooooo good! I think next time I will add the oranges closer to the end to have more bits and pieces in it. Great cake!

I wish I could've given this 5 stars, but I've made this twice and I don't think I'll make it again. Perhaps it IS a good recipe, and I'm just not impressed with Pig Pickin' Cake.

Followed recipe exactly, but doubled it. Used 3 10" cake pans (instead of slicing layers) to create a more dramatic effect. Extra batter I put into cupcakes. Thank you!

Super Delicious!!! I LOVE THIS CAKE!! My mom in law makes this and she can't make enough. My mom made it for her Christmas Party and it was a major hit. It is very moist and full of flavor. We refrigerate for about 2 days before eating so its nice and cold and the juices have time to mix and soak. Yummy!!!

This is my husband's absolutely favorite cake! He says the taste is better after it "sits" for a couple of days! Sometimes leftovers disappear before then!

Never heard of this cake before but the name got me to try this delicious cake. Very moist and flavorful. I made it in 2 8inch pans because I didn't have a third pan and it raised so much it made a small mess when it raised up so high. I have subsequently bought a 3rd cake pan to do this. It was a hit with the whole family. Thanks for posting.

Delicious! And very pretty, too! Next time I will make it in 9-inch pans, though, as my layers were very high--almost too high to fit in my cake keeper.
