VERY FESTIVE
This cake is very colorful and tasty.
If you love a fruit flavored cake with jello and alcohol you hit the jackpot.
This is pure comfort cake for any adult party.
USE ANY KIND OF VODKA
You can really use any liqueur you prefer.
I think vodka is our first choice as it goes well with lime flavors.
POKE HOLES
The cake can be adapted to no alcohol cake for kids, you can choose any colors you like to coordinate your party themes.
Substitute fruit juice for the alcohol.
PERFECT HOLIDAY COLORS
This cake is perfect for a holiday, birthdays or any picnic event.
You can easily transform the colors to match your party theme by using jello and food coloring.
The cake is made from scratch but if you want to save time just use a yellow cake mix.
