  3. HMMMM...... The directions say it is a "poke" cake (you poke holes in the baked cake and pour whatever in it) but the picture is clearly a layer cake!

  4. I did make this and it looked almost exactly like it...I doubled the full recipe and split the batter up between three 8"x8" pans.Then I did it like a three layer cake..I used a nice size sqaure platter and laid down the first cake with the orange jello on top ,then iced that with a generous amount of the icing. I repeated that with the other two layers and then iced the whole cake. Sprinkle grated orange peel for the garnish and VOILA great creamsicle three layer cake...it does make a big cake so good for birthdays!! Hope that helped.
