  • “Thanks for posting this here!I couldn’t find it anywhere online.I made this cake last night as a test for next week’s Christmas cake.I used golden butter cake mix and 2 pkg of unflavored gelatin.Then I added a few drops of food coloring to the gelatin so that I could do the pretty colors without changing the flavor of the cake.Mixed 1 pkg of vanilla flavored pudding mix with 16 oz. of Cool-Whip to make the whipped topping more stabilized.Came out fantastic!”
