Preparation

Step 1

PLACE cakes, top-sides up, in clean 9-inch round pans; pierce with large fork at 1/2-inch intervals.

Special Extra
Serve with colorful fresh berries, such as blueberries, strawberries and raspberries.

Freeze Cake Layers for Summer Desserts
Beat the heat before hot summer weather arrives by baking several sponge or layer cakes while the days are still cool. Place the baked, unfrosted cakes in freezer-weight resealable plastic bags and freeze up to 3 months. When ready to use, remove cakes from bag and let stand at room temperature 1 to 2 hours before using as desired.
