    I made this yesterday, and it was really good. A couple things I would do different, when you layer the sliced pound cake, make sure it lays flat. Also, the jell-o mixture took more like 10 minutes to firm up. When you spread the jell-o fruit mixture, again make sure it's all level so when you frost it, it's even. Some others have left comments with the package sizes and better directions, it was extremely helpful. I didn't think the directions above were very clear.

    You could cut down on the calories for this cake by using sugar-free gelatin, neufschatel cheese instead of cream cheese, Splenda instead of sugar, and "lite" cool whip. Not as rich, but still "yummy" and diabetics could enjoy a piece too!

    I think there is something not quite right about the above recipe. How much boiling water?? Then it is suppose to thicken in 5 minutes, mine was in 20 minutes. How thick is thick??
