Pig Pickin Cake

"This Pig Pickin Cake is amazingly moist, fruity, and simple to make. It’s a deliciously easy Southern cake that is light and refreshing. It’s Southern hospitality at its finest. Who doesn’t like anything covered in whipped cream and mandarin orange slices? This Pig Pickin Cake cake is a winner for any occasion because of its light fruity texture but it is also simple to make because this is a box cake mix recipe. Therefore, it comes together quickly but faster if you have an electric mixer. This tastes like a scratch-made cake. I know, the name alone makes it intriguing and a fun addition to any barbecue because of the conversations it will start. Many people in the South brag about their hummingbird layer cakes but this could be its new rival! The Southern barbecue got the name “pig picking” down south because everyone wanted the best part of the pig at the picnic. This mandarin orange cake became a regular on the dessert table of most Southern pig roasts too. It is the personification of summer in cake form. This Pig Pickin Cake has a bright flavor that is also light for those warm summer days."
