    I totally agree with the lady who said she can't believe the recipes leave out the most important ingredient (instant pudding). I too have made this for my family for 40 years and never made it without the instant pudding, that is what keeps the cake from getting soggy. You just add one box (dry) instant vanilla pudding to the cake mix. Don't like this cake without it, it is way too soggy.

    I baked this cake last night, then added the whipped cream this morning. I also used strawberries instead of the raspberries. I love it! Not only is it extremely easy to make, it's delicious! The cake is very moist, but not soggy! I may try using the vanilla pudding next time, though, like many reviewers have suggested..just for something different. My husband's gonna love it!!!!!
