I make this cake using lemon cake mix and add lime jello. I also use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke the holes. I add prepared instant lemon pudding to the cool whip for the topping.My whole family loves this cake. I am always asked to bring it to easter dinner.

This is one of my all time favorite cakes. My Mom would make it for my birthday in May. It's a great spring time dessert.

I used to make this with my grandma when I was younger, and it's still a favorite of mine. I like to mix a package of vanilla instant pudding with the Cool Whip to make a light frosting for the cake.

Everyone asks me to make this for all types of functions.The mixed fruit is the favorite of many that has tried the four kinds I have made.(strawberry,raspberry,strawberry & bannana) I also use the fat free cool whip.I use the end of a wooden spoon and a straw to poke the holes.Great great recipe !
