Instructions

Cake:

  1. Mix the first four ingredients in a large bowl.
  2. Pour cake batter into a 12x18 pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 minutes. Let cake cool before adding frosting.

Frosting:

  1. In a mixer, or with a blender, beat pudding mix, crushed pineapple, and whipped topping together.
  2. Spread frosting generously over the cooled cake. The frosted cake should be kept in the refrigerator until it is served.
  3. Top with sliced mandarin oranges right before serving.

Notes

  • For the cake, you can use either a lemon or a yellow cake mix. I prefer the lemon cake mix because it brings out the citrus flavor of the oranges as well as the lemon in the mix, and I think it is delicious with the pineapple in the frosting.
  • You will know when the cake is done when it is just turning a light brown on top, and a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
  • This recipe makes a ton of frosting! The frosting is not a heavy, rich frosting, but more light and creamy so I generously heap it on the cake.
  • It is a nice touch to add mandarin orange slices, pineapple slices, or strawberry slices to the top of the cake when serving.
