- Mix and bake the cake according to directions on box using the two - 9" pans.

- Wash and let the fruit dry on paper towel.
- Place the first cake layer on the plate & spread a layer of Cool Whip.
- Distribute slices of kiwi evenly over the Cool Whip.
- Place the next cake layer & repeat until you finish all layers.
- If you want you can randomly add a few of the other fruits in the middle layer.

- Take a handful at a time of the almond slivers & cover the sides of the cake (this is a little messy).
