We love pound cake whether it’s from the store or homemade. If you are short on time but still want the wow-factor, this no bake mixed berry easy pound cake recipe is the dessert for you!
I made this no-bake mixed berry pound cake recipe for an after-dinner treat with friends, and it was delicious. It’s so cute and super easy to make with just a handful of ingredients.
This no-bake recipe is as simple as mixing a few things together and stacking them up. But my oh my, is it good. Sometimes, I make pound cake from scratch, but this is a great option for a last-minute no-bake dessert.
Pound Cake is the Perfect Easy Summer Dessert
There’s just something about berries in the summer, and when you add them to a few sweet ingredients found in the freezer, the results are delicious without ever needing the oven!
No one wants to be stuck in a hot kitchen when there is fun to be had. What I love about this dessert is how quick and easy it is to make. It takes longer to go to the store for ingredients than it does to make!
I use the term “make,” of course, as this easy pound cake recipe is as simple as mixing together instant pudding and milk, adding whipped topping, and assembling.
It’s great for last-minute parties or work events when you forgot to make a side to bring along.
How to Make it
Mix the instant pudding with milk. Then stir in one cup of the Cool Whip.
As the pudding sets, slice your pound cake and some berries (I used strawberries and blueberries this time). You can use fresh or frozen berries. I always try to use fresh berries whenever possible.

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later!
This makes a great Memorial Day or July 4th dessert if you use the berries to make a flag decoration. Delicious and so festive.
Do you need a pound cake pan?
Add a quick crumb coat with the rest of the filling once you layer the pudding mixture, cake, and fruit.
Then frost with the remaining whipped topping for a crisp, white finish.
Top with berries in any design you choose, and enjoy!

Will it make a difference that I purchased Family Size Instant Vanilla pudding?
You will likely have extra but that’s not really a bad thing! If you use it all, the consistency may be a little more dense. I’d probably make it and set some aside before mixing with the Cool Whip. Enjoy!
Its a family favorite here!
