I adapted a Bundt cake recipe to create this layer cake. Cranberries, walnuts and homemade frosting make it taste so delicious that you'd never guess it starts with a convenient cake mix. —Sandy Burkett, Galena, Ohio

Delicious cake--nice and moist. Pretty too with the red speckles throughout. Was not too sure about trying this since I always make my cakes from scratch. It made a believer out of me.

Baking has been my passion for the past 30 years. I'm constantly trying new recipes and adding only the most outstanding to my collection. When I read, it's usually about cooking and recipes. I'm known for my delicious desserts and love to share them with family and friends. This cake is an absolute winner! Don't skimp on the the orange zest, I used an entire large orange and the taste is so fresh. This cake is light and the flavor pops in your mouth. My 25 yr old son has never liked cake and has always requested pie or another dessert from his birthdays. Well, I made this for Christmas and after being coaxed by his new bride, he reluctantly tried it and was an instant fan. My husband and 2 other children loved it as well. I gave it out as Christmas gifts using my "cake in a jar" recipe and it's been a hit! Love, love, love this recipe!! Thank you for sharing.
