Notes
- You can use whatever cake mix you’d like! Any brand, any flavor. Pick your favorite, and follow the directions.
- Remember to thaw your whipped topping ahead of time! Otherwise, it will not fully infuse into the poke cake, and it just won’t work out as deliciously.
- Be sure to drizzle your caramel mixture while the cake is still warm, because it absorbs best this way.
- Substitute your favorite candies! This is a great recipe to use up any lingering Halloween candy. M&M’s, Snicker’s, KitKat, Twix,… Chop up all your favorites and toss them in!
- Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Freezer Directions: Cover and freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, place in refrigerator overnight, and serve when fully thawed!

What is a Poke Cake?
To put it simply, a poke cake is exactly what it would sound like. Through the use of a fork or the back of a thin wooden spoon, holes are typically pierced into the top of the cake with this method. After that, it is typically stuffed with a filling of some form, the most frequent of which is a mixture of sweetened condensed milk, such as the one that is being used here, custard or Jell-O.
Do I have to use Devil’s Food Cake?
Nope. I love Devil’s food with this particular recipe because it’s rich and so chocolatey that it’s just a touch bitter which really offsets the sweetness from the topping and the caramel filling.
