Dreamsicle Cake (favorite cake, pudding, recipe, buy)

[lovethetruth]

Up until last year I could buy Dreamsicle cake mix from the gorcery stores. This was produced by Duncan Hines and sold as one of their signature desserts. Late last year I noticed it had vanished from the shelves.

There are a few recipes online for it but I dont know which one would replicate the same flavor and texture.


Has anyone tried this? This is absolutely one of my favorite cake choices. The cake has an orange flavor and the icing is so delicious.


Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

There's one on recipezaar.com that you could try. It sounds interesting..it has miricle whip in it and uses a yellow cake mix.

Thanks for the tip, I will look that up. I must admit that the miracle whip part sounds odd, are you sure it isnt cool whip?

Once again thank you, I went to that site and there were 4 different recipes. The first two sound like they would do the trick.
If you havent eaten this cake yet, you must try it.

The recipe with Miracle whip isnt the one, however I may try it also.

I'd never even heard of this cake, but it sounds yummy! I just may have to try my hand at one of the recipes.

I have made this cake for years and when people would ask what kind it was and I'd tell them, they'd say "HUH?". They would taste it and say "OH YEA! I remember it NOW!"... This is the recipe I use;
