Expert Tips for Making Poke Cakes

  • What to use when poking holes into your cake: Use either the end of a small spoon or a very wide straw to poke holes into your poke cake. These tools will help reach the bottom of the pan.
  • Make the holes in the cake when it is warm: When the cake starts to cool down, the crust that is found on the top of the cake will start to crumble more easily
  • Refrigerate your cake: Most poke cakes need to be kept refrigerated since they typically call for pudding, frosting, or Jello. This will also make the cake stay fresh and last longer.
