I am making my first cake for Mother's Day and wanted to know if anyone has an easy filling to you between layers.

you can use the icing as filling, or just use a good quality jam.

I agree...icing or jam would be the easiest. For jam I LOVE Polaner all fruit SEEDLESS raspberry. It is a delicious filling for a cake...especially vanilla cake. hth

Instant pudding works great, and is so easy and fast!!

Now that I sell cake supplies I use sleeves of fruit fillings inc. fillings and they are great (and cheaper), but before I would just use pie filling. I would use the cans of pie filling at the grocery store. That and pudding was pretty my exclusively what I used previously, including in my own wedding cake.

I stir a couple of tablespoons of fruit jam into some buttercream. It's really tasty!

Thank you everyone. I used the seedless Polaner raspberry jam.

Instant pudding! I never thought of that. What a great idea!

The cake was a hit. Everyone loved the jam.
Thanks!
