I’ve been wanting to try to make a soda-pop cake. It’s not something that was on my to-do list, but something I thought about from time-to-time (especially every-time there’s a certain commercial on)
The recipe’s really simple, but it’s way to big for me and my husband, so I halved it and made an 8 inch cake
~~~~~~~~
8 inch Soda-pop cake
Put frozen fruit in the bottom of an ungreased 8 inch cake pan
*(You can use fresh or thawed fruit too)
Spoon 2 cups dry cake mix on top of fruit
Pour 1 cup of soda-pop on the cake mix
Bake at 350° for 30 minutes to 1 hour or until nicely brown and done.
*The reason for the broad baking time is that I used frozen fruit and it took my cake an hour to bake. I suspect if I had of used fresh or thawed fruit that it may have taken less time… but I could be wrong.
If you make this cake with fresh or thawed fruit and it takes less baking time, come back and comment and let me know.
The only thing I would do different with this cake is that I would take a small spoon and dip up some of the soda-pop and dampen all the cake mix so it wouldn’t have dry mix in spots on top.
This recipe is that it tastes a lot better than it looks.
My husband says it’s delicious and I agree.
Also, if a person wanted a smaller cake all you’d half to do is half the measurements, bake it in a smaller pan and watch the baking time carefully until it’s fully cooked.

My Bff says her son-in-law told her that he recently had some orange crush cake and it was one of the best tasting cakes he’s had.
So, I guess you know what my next cake will be. 😉
Stay tuned…
Have you ever made a soda-pop cake?
What fruit and flavors of soft drink and cake mix did you use?
Wishing you all a sweet rest of the week.

Perhaps you have been sheltered too much. Blogging makes us all a little jaded when it comes to tempting delicious foody posts.
If you make a soda-pop cake let me know how it does for you. 🙂

I’ve never heard of this either. There used to be something called a ‘coca cola cake’ but it was chocolate. I’m totally intrigued.

As a second thought, I wonder how pineapple would be as the fruit and orange crush as the soda? See? You’ve got my little mind just whirling away. LOL.

Hey Renee
I’d heard of a cola cake but not what it was made with. I didn’t even know it was chocolate. I may have to give that a try sometime too. I enjoy easy desserts. 🙂

Weight watchers has a recipe for a chocolate Diet Coke cake. It’s just chocolate cake mix, and 8 ounces of Diet Coke. At least, I think that’s all there is; I haven’t made it in a long time! But it’s very good.
Your cake looks delish!
