Coca Cola Sheet Cake
This moist and rich coca cola cake is a tried and true favorite to many people! The extra sweetness from the cola and the airiness texture from the carbonation…. paired with the hot sticky icing that partially fuses into the cake, makes it irresistible.
This recipe turns that all time favorite coca cola cake into a SHEET CAKE, simple to make and large enough to make for gatherings and parties.
You can find the perfect sheet cake pan HERE! It’s our favorite. 😉
We Six Sisters love the ease and simplicity to sheet cake recipes… simple to make and easy to transport and serve, but packed full of rich flavor and yumminess. Be sure to check out our other Sheet Cake Recipes!
Pour the warm icing over the hot cake and let it sit for a while. The icing will crust over nicely and ooze itself into the cake a bit, making it even more moist and rich.
