    If the cake tastes good, mix a container of cool whip with a pkg of vanilla pudding, made with only 1 cup of milk. Cut the cake into cubes and put it in a bowl. It would make a delicious trifle. Top with more pineapple or coconut and nuts.
    I made a gluten free angelfood cake that fell apart and did this.

    Well even though it was a mess, it all got eaten and was tasty. Here is a picture of my sisters cheese ball carrot. Isn't it cute?[ATTACH=CONFIG]571561[/ATTACH]

    Don't the English call it a Trifle when you mix whipped cream with pieces of cake? That's my story and I am sticking to it! LOL!

    I have made the angel food cake with the pineapple and it works best in a rectangular pan, as someone else said.

    Oops! It seems we all had the same trifle idea.

    Good advice! I would only suspend a plain cake as others have stated. I get a lot of use out of my 9 x 13 pan.

    In my home area, we have a cake recipe that is called "dead cake," because it is fast to whip up for funerals. It requires one box of ONE-STEP angel food cake mix. Yes, the one-step is important. The second ingredient is a can of fruit pie filling, berry flavors work better that apple because the apple has large chunks of fruit. Use ONLY those two ingredients, no extra water, juice anything. It looks like school glue when you are mixing it. Place it in a 9 X 13 and bake according to time and temp on the pkg. This make a flat cake, more like a bar. Top it with whipped cream.
