You can really cheat with this "homemade" cake and begin with a store-bought angel food cake - or buy an angel food cake mix. Adorn it with fresh berries for a summer birthday. This is one cake that usually disappears during the party. Bake and cool one angel food cake according to directions. Remove from pan and slice crosswise into 3 layers. Spread frosting between each layer and cover sides and top of cake with it. Chill before cutting.
Yield: Serves 10.
Filling and Frosting:
- 1 teaspoon gelatin
- 1 tablespoon hot water
- 1 cup thick raspberry jam
- 1 pint whipping cream
In a mixing bowl stir gelatin into hot water and continue stirring until dissolved. Stir in raspberry jam. When partially set, whip the cream and fold into jam.

My birthday is Thursday and I
My birthday is Thursday and I might make this for my cake...sounds healthier than an icecream pie from Baskin Robbins!
