Strawberry Creme Passion Poke Cake! {True Luv}

 There’s ‘True Luv’ in this poke cake of passion!  Can’t you feel the luv?

Perfect for any time of the year, this Strawberry Creme ‘Passion’ Poke Cake is dazzling, passionate and bursting out the doors with dreamy flavors!

Just look at all that creamy pudding in the ‘poking’ holes!  Poke cakes are soooo delish. 🙂

The first one I ever had, was poked with orange Jell-o, in a white cake and topped with cool whip and it was pretty darn good and nothing like I had ever had before.

Do you remember your first time? (Ughhh…Did i just say that?!)  You know what I mean! 🙂

 Well since then, we’ve come a long way with flavors and fillings.

This one is so moist, and has plenty of amazing strawberry flavor to make you giddy! 

Jell-o has a pudding flavor called ‘Strawberry Creme‘, which is what i used in this, but with the strawberry cake mix, I thought it might be too over-powering, so I added some sweetened condensed milk, milk and heavy whipping cream to the pudding mix. 

Now, it’s “Just right Goldilocks”!
