Cherry Angel Cloud Cake is a light, fluffy dessert made with airy angel food cake, creamy filling, and sweet cherries on top 🍒☁️. It’s popular because it’s easy, no-bake, and very light compared to heavy cakes.
Cherry Angel Cloud Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 prepared Angel food cake (store-bought or homemade), cut into cubes
- 1 package (3.4 oz / ~100 g) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1½ cups cold milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 container whipped topping (about 8 oz / 225 g)
- 1 can Cherry pie filling
- Optional: sliced fresh Cherries for garnish
Instructions
1️⃣ Make the creamy filling
In a bowl, whisk together:
- Vanilla pudding mix
- Cold milk
Let it thicken for about 2 minutes.
2️⃣ Add creaminess
Fold in:
- Sour cream
- Whipped topping
Mix gently until smooth and fluffy.
3️⃣ Assemble the cake
- Place half of the angel food cake cubes in a dish.
- Spread half of the cream mixture over the cake.
- Add the remaining cake cubes on top.
- Spread the rest of the cream mixture.
4️⃣ Add the topping
Spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the top.
5️⃣ Chill
Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours so the layers set and flavors blend.
✅ Serving tip:
Serve cold for the best “cloud-like” texture. The cake becomes soft, creamy, and slightly mousse-like.
