CAN I USE OTHER FLAVORS FOR POKE CAKES?
Absolutely! The combinations are fun and endless. This recipe is similar to the one I use for my STRAWBERRY JELL-O POKE CUPCAKES. That recipe is just a white cake mix with strawberry jell-o. Or, in this recipe, you could substitute the lemon cake mix with a white or yellow cake mix and switch up the different jell-o flavors. A red, white and blue one would be perfect for your 4th of July celebrations!
ingredients needed to make cake: eggs, oil and water
