Ingredients

  • Cake: Use store-bought pound cake or angel food cake, or bake your favorite from scratch.
  • Vanilla Pudding: Instant vanilla pudding mix for a smooth and creamy layer.
  • Mixed Berries: Fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries for color and flavor.
  • Whipped Cream: Heavy cream whipped with sugar for a light topping.
