Nicole's Punch Bowl Cake image

This is my favorite dessert to make, and always gets raves. This is really easy to make, and my 5 yr. old loves to help. You may use any fruit you like, but I have found these taste the best. This is great for a dinner party, potluck, or family gathering where you need to feed a lot. I usually bake my cake the night before, but if you premake ahead even a couple of days the syrup
