Lemon fruit cake is delicious and made with a mix. This cake will make your friends and family think you spent hours in the kitchen. This lemon fruit cake is so easy and would be wonderful for Easter, any spring or summer event or just anytime you want a good lemon cake. You could make this cake in a 9 x 13 baking pan if you want but you may have to cut the cooking time. My family loved this cake. If you like lemon, you will like this cake.
Ingredients for Lemon Fruit Cake
1 (16.5 ounce) box Duncan Hines Signature Lemon Supreme Moist Cake Mix
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple tidbits with 100% pineapple juice, drained (save 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice)
1 (15 ounce) can mandarin oranges in light syrup, drained (save 1/4 cup of the juice)
1/2 cup milk
4 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1 cup coconut
DO NOT MAKE THE CAKE ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTIONS ON THE BOX. Combine the cake mix, the juice saved from the pineapple, the juice saved from the oranges, the milk, eggs and oil. Mix with a mixer. Fold in the pineapple tidbits, the mandarin oranges and the coconut with a spoon. Generously spray a 10 inch bundt pan with cooking spray and pour in the batter. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 55 to 60 minutes until center tests done. Cool for 10 minutes and remove from pan. Enjoy!
I used my recipe for powdered sugar glaze drizzled over this cake and sprinkled on extra coconut and then added maraschino for decoration. My recipe for cream cheese frosting would be good on this cake, too.
