Make-Ahead No-Bake Dessert

Then the whole thing is covered in Cool Whip or fresh whipped cream. This is a great make ahead dessert for a picnic or potluck. The cake should be assembled at least 8 hours in advance for best results.

What’s really great about this Strawberry Filled Angel Food Cake besides the fact that it is a wonderfully delicious and gorgeous spring dessert, is you can totally make it from scratch or you can use some store-bought products for convenience and to make it in a jiffy.

Angel Food Cake

You can make a homemade, from scratch Angel Food Cake or one from a boxed mix. Or you can use a store-bought Angel Food Cake which is what I do.

Cool Whip or Fresh Whipped Cream

Use Cool Whip or make fresh whipped cream. It’s your choice. Either way it will be delicious. If you make fresh whipped cream , you will want to sweeten it some.

This spring dessert is so easy and delicious and a wonderful way to use fresh strawberries. It makes a great Mother’s Day treat!

Change Up The Fruit

This cake can easily be made with blueberries, raspberries, blackberries or sliced peaches instead of strawberries.

  1. Susan Wheat

    You are cutting the cake in half basically tearing out middle in to little pieces and once it’s all mixed you put it in the hollowed out part, replace top and ice with cool whip

  2. Love your recipes and anxious to try this but confused re “leaving 1” border at bottom”. There is already a hole throughout the middle of cake from the Angel cake pan. Doesn’t filling go right to bottom of the plate?
