The classic poke cake that started it all.

This strawberry Jello poke cake is the original poke cake. It is a timeless classic loved for generations. Poke cakes are brilliant because holes poked throughout the cake allow a flavorful filling to absorb deep inside, making every bite incredibly moist and bursting with flavor. This version uses strawberry Jello that seeps in beautifully, creating gorgeous pink swirls and a fruity, refreshing taste. Light, vibrant, and effortlessly pretty.

Serve it with fresh strawberries, a glass of lemonade, or sparkling rosé for a fun twist.

How to serve: Slice cold from the fridge, topped generously with Cool Whip and fresh strawberry slices.
