This easy to make Tropical Sangria Poke Cake is spiked with white wine mango gelatin and then topped off with a fruity whipped topping frosting...

As some of you all already know, I have been a recipe contributor for Real Housemoms since August of last year. I am always looking for ways to improve upon and grow this little blog of mine, but I had no idea when I joined Aubrey's talented team of bloggers just how much it would do for Frugal Foodie Mama and for my growth personally as a blogger.

For Aubrey, having blog contributors isn't just about curating fresh and new content for her own blog. She has been amazing in promoting and supporting the work that we all do on our own individual blogs.

While I would definitely categorize Aubrey of Real Housemoms as one of the "big bloggers" out there, she has remained down to earth and is always so generous and open with sharing her experience and knowledge with each of us.

Today, myself and other members of the RH team are celebrating Aubrey on her birthday by sharing with you all recipes, crafts, and tutorials that have all been inspired by Aubrey and some of her favorite things.

If you are already a Real Housemoms fan, you may have noticed her fondness for sangria recipes. I knew I wanted to come up with a cake (because what is a birthday without cake?) inspired by one of her favorite cocktails.

When I came across her recipe for Tropical Moscato Sangria, I knew I had found my recipe inspiration. ;) This easy to make poke cake is spiked with white wine mango gelatin and then topped off with a fruity whipped topping frosting...

This Tropical Sangria Poke Cake is like taking a bite out of a warm beach day on a tropical island, which I can definitely use right about now with all the snow and cold we have had this way lately. ;)

Another awesome thing about this poke cake? It is totally versatile! Use yellow cake mix instead. Try different fruity flavors of gelatin in this. Use different fruit in the whipped topping frosting- like kiwi, mandarin oranges, or fresh mango chunks.

The possibilities are pretty much endless with this one, folks. I used a nice moscato for the white wine, but just about any white wine you have on hand will work in this.

I mentioned earlier that other talented members of the Real Housemoms team were also sharing posts today to help celebrate Aubrey's birthday. Be sure to check out their posts below! And if you have a chance, stop by Aubrey's Twitter or Instagram and give her a little birthday shout-out... ;)
