Preparation
Step 1
Place cake layers, top sides up, in 2 clean 9-inch round cake pans. Pierce layers with large fork or wooden skewers at 1/2-inch intervals.
Stir 1 cup of the boiling water into each flavor of dry gelatin mix in separate bowls at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Carefully pour red gelatin over 1 cake layer and lime gelatin over second cake layer. Refrigerate 3 hours.
Dip 1 cake pan in warm water 10 seconds; unmold onto serving plate.
Spread with about 1 cup of the cream cheese frosting onto the top of the first cake.
Unmold the second cake layer; carefully place on top of first cake layer. Frost top and side of cake with remaining cream cheese frosting.
Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until ready to serve. Decorate with fresh raspberries, if desired. Store leftover cake in refrigerator.
