HELP!! I printed an Easter Sunrise Cake Recipe and I came back to print the recipe and they have taken it off of their list of cakes. Does anyone have the recipe? It was a poke cake with orange cake and crushed pineapple and powdered sugar topping and in the holes. A very good cake but I don't have the recipe. Thanks

This is a very nice light and low fat cake. I top each slice with a small fresh strawberry or 2-3 slices of a large strawberry. Easy to make and always a crowd pleaser!

For the cake, do you also add the eggs/oil or just the dry mix and strawberry purée?

Yes, cool the cake then poke holes in it. Pour the pureed strawberries and let it soak in. Very delicious.

I actually bake my cake the night before, poke the holes, pour in the pureed strawberries so that it soaks overnight (very juicy), then prepare the topping the next morning.

A friend of mine makes a Pineapple version of this so, could you use crushed pineapples and poke the cake the same way ? Her cake was delicious.

I've made this recipe from a Duncan Hines Cook Book and it used the French Vanilla Cake Mix. It was a family get together and my nephew ate 3 pieces, stating that it tasted just like Strawberry Short Cake. That occasion was the first time I had ever mixed the whipped topping w/ pudding for an icing. It really was delicious.

It calls for 3 cups frozen non-dairy whipped topping and "fresh" strawberries but the direcions say "shawed strawberries???Huh?
Comment by: caroline.wainwright (no discussions) on Feb 16, 2013 at 09:57 PM
Just puree the fresh strawberries. Just a typo. I don't think it'll make much of a difference in consistency.

I puree the frozen strawberries and pour them on the cake to go in the holes then for the topping I do the pudding and whip cream. Then slice fresh strawberries on top.

Do you think using Strawberry preserves instead of frozen strawberries would work well?
Comment by: jeff.meulemans (no discussions) on Feb 16, 2013 at 03:03 PM
No. Maybe if you would thin them down with something. Straight preserves would be to thick to flow down in the holes in the cake. And frozen strawberries are less expensive to use. Go to the store and get some frozen berries.

My Mom used to make this cke all the time when I was young. Instead of frozen strawberries, she would use strawberry jello. It was so moist and delicious!!!

I do the rainbow poke cake using different jellos. It makes a pretty rainbow in the cake.

I just found this recipe. I have been looking for a GOOD strawberry cake recipe. Can anybody that has made this before, tell me... Would this be good w/ butter cream frosting (made from scratch, not out of a can) ? Also, does it sit out ok, or does it start to get soggy ? I would be making it for a Baby Shower, so it would be out on the table for a bit.

I normally frost it with butter cream frosting and it works and taste wonderful. The longer its out of the frig the softer the frosting gets.

I have also frosted this cake with Cream Cheese frosting (made from scratch, not of a can) and works well sitting out for a while
Comment by: drhmcharm (no discussions) on Feb 13, 2013 at 03:44 PM
I also chop fresh strawberries up and put them in the batter. adds extra strawberry chunks.
