Hey there! Have I got a wonderful spring-summer inspired elegant dessert that requires just a little assembly and a few easy steps to pull it all together to get this Fluffy Angel Food Cake with Fresh Berries?! Yay, we like! <3
Fluffy Angel Food Cake with Fresh Berries is a luscious, 3 layer angel food cake stuffed with luscious fluffy, whipped cheesecake pudding filling and juicy, fresh berries adorned throughout. Then it’s topped with whipped cream and more berries and it’s ‘Awww’-Freaking-Mazing!
I’ve been wanting to make a scratch angel food cake and sponge cake, due to I don’t have any on the blog and because some of your have been asking for them as well. (thank you!) Don’t count me out though! I hope to accomplish this before the fall season steps into the picture, so I’ve got a few months of a window of opportunity here.
Ok, so the easy-to-make part, is you go to your local grocery store or bakery and purchase an angel food cake already baked. “Ahhh-Haaa!”, you say! That’s how it’s done! That cuts out about an hour of time when baking an angel food by scratch.
Slice through it evenly 2 times with a serrated or sharp knife, so you get 3 cake layers.
The rest is simple. All you need is cream cheese, vanilla pudding, whipped cream and berries. 🙂
Sometimes I make a very small commission, if you buy products I recommend on the blog, (see non-disclosure) which are products that I love and excited to share with you.
If you don’t have a cake stand, I purchased this Amazing Cake Multifunctional Serving and Cake Stand
It’s a 6 – in 1 cake & serving stand, it keeps baked goods moist & fresh. It’s made of durable crystal clear acrylic makes it lighter and much more difficult to break unlike traditional glass stand. You can take it to potlucks and don’t have to worry about it shattering like a glass stand if mishandled. It looks nice too!
Highlights
* This Multi-Functional Cake Stand Showcases the Perfect Blend of Function and Design
* Cake Stand with Dome Cover
* Salad Bowl with 4 individual sections and large lettuce bowl
* Punch Bowl
* Chip ‘N Dip Plate
* Versatile multi-purpose serving piece. Useful and creative item for your kitchen
* Perfect for your families needs and moms with little ones who love to bake!
Check it out at least! You’ll see! And I frosted it with this Wilton Angled Icing Spatula
So, ultimately, you’ll love this Fluffy Angel Food Cake Delight with Fresh Berries as a light, refreshing lush cake to serve and with Mother’s Day and the 4th of July coming up on the calendar, this dessert should totally be a part of the festivities, don’t you think? Yes!!!

Notes
Angel food cake is one of my favorites but I’ve never eaten one as gorgeous as this! That filling sounds absolutely divine :). Have a great week, Kim!
Awe thank you Kelsie! I must admit, I had a hard time staying out of it, it was so good! 🙂
Looks delicious!
Thank you Teresa! 🙂
This cake looks gorgeous! I love cakes topped with berries 🙂
Aww…thanks Pamela! It’s so good with the berries!
I had to Pin this immediately! I have been trying to focus on healthy eating lately and all of the fresh berries in this cake are helping to trick my mind into needing to make this ASAP. Maybe only two layers of cake and an extra handful of berries will help do the trick!
I think you’re on to something Brittany! I do that tricking of the mind quite often. 🙂 Thanks for pinning and sharing!
