A trifle bursting with flavor!!! Using blood orange juice(which is orange flavored with overtones of strawberry and raspberries)to flavor the cake, combined with strawberries and red raspberry preserves and the creaminess of the pudding and whipped topping makes for a sensational dessert. This dessert could be lightened by using light or fat free pudding and whipped topping.

1 (9 ounce) box of jiffy yellow cake mix (can use other cake mix but will need to adjust amount of blood orange juice, and it will make more t)

  • Assembly:.
