Oh my gosh.....fresh strawberries with yellow cake topped with whipped cream would be strawberry short cake!!

I can't wait to make it again!! It honestly took no more than 2 minutes to make!

I want all of this.

Actually no. The berries weren't sweetened and the cake isn't very sweet. The ice cream sweetened it up though. I'm sure if you put sweetened berries it would be sweeter.

Interesting. I was thinking the sprite + sweet cake mix would make it very sweet.

I don't find plain cake mix to be all that sweet, so maybe my sweet meter is off as well.

What's the measure on the berries? Did the pin list a quantity?

I didn't find it on Pinterest, I googled and found it on a blog. I spread out the berries so the whole bottom of the pan was covered with a single layer of berries.

Some recipes say not to mix the cake mix and Sprite but it looked weird like that on the blog I saw so I decided to mix it.

Got it! Thanks. I think I'll try this next weekend when the ILs come over for dinner.

I'll have to try it with a less sweet berry. Maybe blackberries? Maybe it is just me but I always think cake mixes taste sweeter than cake from scratch.

Can you post the link please? I want to send it to someone, but don't want to admit where I found it.

[Doc_Lobster]

Thanks!

I'd imagine if you used sugar free cake mix that it would be a little better health wise. I'd like to try strawberry's with chocolate cake. That sounds divine! Thanks for the idea!

Could you use sprite zero?

Yes. It would work fine.

I usually use diet 7up cherry and strawberry cake mix. awesome cupcakes.
