Was looking for an easy green dessert for St. Patty's Day and this was perfect! Actually enjoyed it more without the frosting, simply served with a little sweetened whipped cream and lime twist on the side. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Living in Australia, the Angel Food cake isn't a common cake to come upon. I used a Vanilla Cake mix and strawberry jelly mix to make this for my daughters' 7th birthday cake and it was wonderful, easy, light and an a+ in my books. Thanks Lorraine.
