    I made this with chocolate cake and it is to die for!!! Sprinkled with the caramel and nuts--man oh man!! The best cake I've ever made and everyone loves it. I've also made it with white cake mix and it is much lighter tasting and awesome.

    I made this cake and brought it in for my students for a school bakesale. Not a crumb left - every piece was sold! Me dijeron que era mejor que los tres leches de sus abuelas! (They said it was better than their grandmothers' tres leches cake! This is a sure hit!

    the cake tasted good, although a bit too sweet for my liking. remember to poke holes in the cake!!! i fogot and the bottom ended up soggy and the top dry. i didn't add rum and had no clue what cake mix w/ pudding was so I used regular cake mix and it turned out delicious.

    This was a fabulous tasting cake. I have to be honest and say that I never expected the cake to soak up all that liquid yet not be soggy, but that is exactly what happened. I did omit the rum and the coconut, yet it still tasted so, so good. Thanks for a wonderful recipe that I will definitely be making again. This was such a hit at work!

    I made this for my husband and in-laws, who are from Latin America-and they absolutely loved it! They said it was the best tres leches they've had! And I told them the short cut of using a cake mix and my mother in law is going back to her country with this new baking tip! She's very excited. Also, you can cut the fat & calories by using fat free evap. milk, half & half instead of whipping cream, etc. It still tastes good!

    This was excellent and simple. I added some mexican vanilla to the cake mix and made fresh whip cream and added vanilla to that too. My mom and stepfather were fighting over the leftovers. I will be making this again.

    I took this cake to work for a potluck dinner and did not have one crumb left. Very easy also. I left half without the coconut and it please all tastes.

    Everytime I make this cake everyone LOVES it!! Now I did 2 things different. 1st I ommited the rum. 2nd I add Cajeta to the top of the cake then put the whipp cream and nuts on top Cajeta is a
    mexican caremel . So good and everyone who tries it raves. And dont be afraid to put too much liquid on the cake. Thats what makes it so good !j
