We put the top back on and then frosted with cook whip and whole strawberries. Good especially when strawberries are in season. I'm going to try your too.

GRAMMIE SHARON.... Please tell me more about your recipe... did you let the jello congeal a bit before you put the layers of jello and angel food cake bits back into the hollowed out cake? I was trying to envision how the really liquid jello would react with the cake.

LISA JANE: I've seen this or variations for your recipe over the years, thanks for sharing and it's encouraging me to try it. My husband has the sweetest tooth...thank goodness I don't, and he's tall and skinny and I'm fluffy....go figure?
