Description

This Easter Bunny Poke Cake is a vibrant and festive dessert filled with colorful pudding and topped with whipped cream and bunny-themed decorations—perfect for spring celebrations.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake

  • 1 box white cake mix

  • Ingredients as listed on the box (typically water, eggs, oil)

For the Filling

  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding

  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant strawberry pudding

  • 4 cups cold milk

  • Gel food coloring (pink, blue, yellow, green)

For the Topping

  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed

  • Easter sprinkles

  • Bunny marshmallows, candies, or peeps

  • Shredded coconut (optional, dyed green)


Instructions

  • Bake the Cake
    Preheat the oven and prepare the white cake mix according to the box instructions. Pour into a greased 9×13 baking dish and bake. Let the cake cool slightly after baking.

  • Poke the Cake
    Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes across the cake while it’s still warm, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

  • Prepare the Pudding
    Mix each pudding flavor with 2 cups of cold milk. Divide each pudding into two bowls and tint each with different pastel gel colors for a total of four.

  • Fill the Cake
    Spoon the colored pudding into the holes, alternating colors to create a fun marbled effect. Smooth over any excess on top.

  • Chill the Cake
    Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours so the pudding sets properly and infuses the cake.

  • Top with Whipped Cream
    After chilling, spread the whipped topping evenly across the top of the cake.

  • Decorate
    Add festive Easter sprinkles, bunny-themed candies, and optional green-tinted coconut for a grassy look. Serve chilled.

Notes

Make sure to use gel food coloring to achieve vibrant colors without thinning the pudding. Let the cake chill fully before adding toppings for best texture. Store any leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
