This Cream Soda Flavor Extract Poke Cake elevates a classic boxed cake by infusing both the batter and filling with nostalgic cream soda taste. The cream soda liquid and extract create a bubbly, creamy cake base. After baking, pockets are poked into the cake to fill with a condensed-milk-and-extract infusion, ensuring moist, flavor-rich layers throughout. Topped with a cream soda–scented whipped cream topping, every bite delivers soft, decadent textures and refreshing vanilla-cream soda vibes.

Ingredients

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) white cake mix

  • 1 cup cream soda (liquid)

  • ½ tsp cream soda flavor extract (natural or organic)

  • For the poke filling: ½ cup condensed milk mixed with ¼ tsp cream soda extract

  • For the topping: 2 cups whipped cream, optionally sweetened with ¼ tsp cream soda extract

Directions

  1. Prepare & Bake Cake: Preheat oven and line a baking pan as directed on the cake mix package. Prepare the batter using water, oil, eggs, substituting 1 cup of water with cream soda, and stir in ½ tsp of cream soda flavor extract for a sweet soda-forward aroma.

  2. Cool & Poke Holes: After baking as directed, cool the cake for about 10 minutes. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to create evenly spaced holes across the top of the cake.

  3. Make Infusion: Whisk together condensed milk and an extra ¼ tsp of cream soda extract until smooth and pourable.

  4. Fill the Cake: Slowly pour the mixture over the cake, allowing it to sink into the holes to create rich, creamy pockets.

  5. Add Frosting: Spread whipped cream (garnishing optionally with an extra ¼ tsp of extract for a stronger flavor) evenly across the cake.

  6. Chill & Serve: Refrigerate the cake for at least one hour for flavors to meld and cake to set. Slice and serve a refreshingly creamy and nostalgic dessert.
