Easy Candy Bar Poke Cake Recipe
How to make Poke Cake!
When I was a younger, I remember drooling over Poke Cake. It was always a family favorite, and there’s a reason why. Poke cakes are moist, sweet and addicting. The fun thing about this kind of cake, is you can make it your own.
I decided to name this my Easy Candy Bar Poke Cake Recipe, because you can use YOUR favorite cake recipe and candy choice. If you are a chocolate fan, swap out the caramel sauce for chocolate and the yellow cake for chocolate cake.
My daughter wants to try a strawberry cake next with a berry preserve. I like the way this girl thinks! haha. So have fun mixing and matching cakes and candies. Make sure to let me know your favorite combos!
