Poke around your cupboard and freezer and you’ll probably find everything you need to make a classic “poke” cake. Some things just get easier. This is an old recipe that I never get tierd of. I have made this with a lemon cake/lemon jello and one with an orange cake/orange-pineapple jello! Complete and total success!! Several comments of my new favorite cake. More comments to request for a future birthdays.
