Ingredients:

• 1 box white cake mix (plus ingredients needed on the box)

Instructions:

1. Bake the Cake: Prepare the white cake mix according to package instructions. Let it cool completely, then cut into 1-inch cubes.

5. Garnish: Top with fresh raspberries and white chocolate curls.
6. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Tips
