This is exactly what I was referring to on "Steve's Strawberry Cake" recipe. It's so good! But instead of the vanilla pudding, I use Cheesecake flavored pudding. Sometimes it's hard to spread because some of the strawberry puree sticks to the pudding topping. I sometimes make a second batch just to touch up, or just add a little extra cool whip to cover up after, I finished. This is soo good especially in the summer time.

This is a delicously light and airy cake that tastes heavenly. I made this cake for my sister's Valentine's Day Birthday and everyone loved it. I used a white cake mix instead of the strawberry cake mix and it was great. I'm getting ready to make it again for my mother for Mother's Day tomorrow.

A terrific, surprizingly light dessert! I have also used prureed fresh strawberries or frozen. No sugar added cool whip and sugar-free pudding also are nice too.

This cake creates a fresh and fun spin on the old poke (jello) cake. I first had this cake just a few weeks ago and plan on making it the main dessert at Easter dinner.

I've made this cake six times, family , friends , everyone loves it. I used a deep dish lasagna pan , which made it easier to transport and serve.

When i was a little tiney girl my grandmother used to make a cake very much like this one.I remember she would use whatever berries were in season,or whatever fruit we had recently picked ,or in grandmas words"whatever tickled our fancy" that day! always a fabulous choice no matter what the season I have never had a complaint ,nine times out of nine i've been asked to make extra because it disappears way to quickly!
