I am having the baby tomorrow! Can you believe it? I really can’t either. It still hasn’t hit me yet that I am going to have another little babe to add to our family. But things are going to get pretty real here soon and we can’t even wait to meet her! I have so many delicious posts lined up for you and will be taking some much needed time off to enjoy my last baby.

I couldn’t wait to share this delicious cake with you today. I love love love the lemon blueberry combination and this cake is fantastic. It is made with Lucky Leaf’s premium blueberry fruit topping. Each can is filled with delicious blueberries. Poke Cakes are my favorite and I feel like they make a yummy summer dessert.

You start by making the cake. You poke some holes and then fill it with lemon curd and top it with blueberry topping. Doesn’t that sound delicious? My mouth is watering!

Once you have the blueberry topping you spread it with cool whip. This cake is actually quite simple to put together and a huge crowd pleaser. Every layer is delicious and the hidden lemon curd inside the cake is perfect with every bite. The blueberry topping adds such a great texture and flavor and takes this cake to the next level.

Serve it at your next gathering! You will love it just as much as our family did!

  1. Hi Aylsa, I’m such a big fan of yours I come to your site a lot for dinner inspirations and to see just what good things you have cooking. 🙂 This is the next thing I’m going to tackle for next week, is your Lemon Blueberry Poke Cake two of mine and my husband’s favorite combinations. I have a question for you though you said I need 1 box of 18.25 ounces of lemon supreme cake mix well I have looked and can’t seem to find it could you help me out and tell me where I can find it I tried Walmart, Aldi’s, Bakers and a couple of other local stores around here. All I could find was Duncan Hines Signature Perfectly Moist Lemon Supreme Cake Mix, 15.25 Oz Is going to be big enough and do I need to adjust the other ingredients in the recipe? Is this going to be big enough for a 9×13 pan or do I need to keep looking?

  2. Hi Alyssa, The cake looks so yummy. I need a little clarification though. Your descriptive explanation before the recipe mentions …hidden lemon curd inside the cake….and there is no mention of the lemon pudding mix. The caption below the Recipe Title says ….lemon cake filled with lemon curd topped with a blueberry filling and whipped topping. The Instructions in #3 says to prepare the lemon pudding mix…immediately pour over cake…to fill the holes. Instructions in #6 says …fold…whipped cream and lemon curd. So I am wondering if the lemon pudding should be folded into the whipped cream topping before spreading on top of the blueberry pie filling? I want to share this onolicious looking recipe with orchid club members. Thank you and Aloha.

    1. Hello Carol! The Pudding mix will be mixed and poured into the cake. The 3/4 cup of lemon curd (which is different, you can find my recipe for that here: Perfect Lemon Curd) will be added on top with the whipped cream. Does this help?

  3. I have made many of your recipe’s, and all are excellent. I am getting ready to make the Lemon Blueberry Poke Cake and need clarification on several points.
    1. In your description you say it is filled with the lemon Curd, and the photo seems to suggest that. However, in the instructions it says to add the Lemon Curd to the whipped cream. How does the dollops get into the cake?
    2. Your directions say to remove cake from pan to cool then construct and place in fridge. Photo looks like you keep in the pan, which does make sence to me to keep it together.
    3. I prefer to make my own whip cream. Is that o.k.
    Thanks.

    1. Thank you for your support! I am glad that you are loving my recipes.
      1. The vanilla pudding is what you are seeing in the poked holes. You will add the vanilla pudding mix in step 3 to the poked holes. Then you will add the blueberries over top of that in step 4.
      2. In step 7 it is saying remove the cake from the refrigerator not the pan.
      3. Yes! That is a great idea to make your own whip cream.
      Hopefully these questions help when making this cake!

  4. Much happiness with your new little one.
    Anytime you get to it this year is fine, Is the lemon pudding cooked or instant? It looks wonderful, but I can’t figure it out in my mind, and I’d like to get it right.
    Thank you so much.
    Enjoy this special time.

    1. Thank you so much!! We are loving every minute with our little babe!! She is one sweet girl already! For the lemon pudding mix, it is instant. Thanks for letting me know. I will edit that! Good luck and I hope you enjoy it as much as my family did!! XO

    1. Thank you so much!! We are smitten by her! More pictures to come soon!!
      Lemon Curd is a preserve with a thick consistency made from lemons, butter, eggs, and sugar. There are several recipes you can make or you can always purchase premade from the store. Hope that helps!! Xo

    1. Thanks SO much!! I am so excited to have my baby girl in just a few short hours!! I am so ready:)!!
