Frequently Asked Questions
Using cake mix is a great way to get a delicious cake recipe, but when you use a cake mix box it takes out a lot of the measuring you will need to do.
No, the pie filling is too thick to fit through the holes created by the fork. The best way to get a delicious moist cake is by using jello.

It’s dilicious! Thank you very much in advance, for your lovely recipes.
On your youtube video for this recipe it says to add marzipan to the frosting but that is not listed in this recipe. How much marzipan is added to this frosting?
The recipe in the video was only similar to the recipe we have for that cake. We are so sorry for any confusion!

You can use any fruit you would like. You will want to switch the jello flavor to match the fruit you choose.
