Expert Tips

You can store this make-ahead dessert in your freezer, tightly covered, for up to 3 weeks.

For white chocolate-dipped strawberries, melt 4 oz chopped vanilla-flavored candy coating and mix with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. Dip strawberries into coating, and place on waxed paper to set.

I haven't made it yet but if it has a tendency to break I might make a 9 x 5 inch loaf cake and cut it in threes it shouldn't break then

I just tried this recipe yesterday. And while it tasted wonderful and I received many compliment on it, it was by far and away the the least aesthetically pleasing cake I have had the misfortune to try. I followed the directions exactly (except I didn't use wax paper, I used parchment paper) and like other reviewers, the cake began to break and crumble upon assembley. Then there is the matter of the frosting--also wonderfully flavored--that there just didn't seem to be enough of to cover mistakes. I was terribly disappointed in making this. Because I tend to want to sever my friends something that looks nice and tastes good. When I try this again, I think I'm going to swap out the mango sorbet for lemon just to try something different (but I have a feeling I will go back to the mango as they are my fave!). And double up on the frosting.

This recipe turned out absolutely delicious. My entire family enjoyed it for Easter and said it was very tasty, yet light. My husband couldn't get enough of this dessert and even went so far as to say that he thinks this is the best recipe I have ever made. I had a lot of trouble with my white cake breaking during assembly and the cake fell over in the freezer, but the frosting mostly covered all the mistakes. The flavor combination of this cake was fantastic.
