When I was growing up, my mom made a tangy fruit dish where you cooked tapioca pudding with orange juice and then added drained fruit cocktail or other canned fruit. It would be thick enough to make a good cake filling. If anyone is interested, I'll see if I can find the recipe..............
I have an recipe for you, but you should try it before.

1 mediun can of fruit cocktail
1 small box of vanilla pudding
1 small can of condense milk

Here's the recipe:
2 boxes Jello cook & serve tapioca pudding
1 envelope Knox gelatin
1 can fruit cocktail or other canned fruit
orange juice
Drain fruit, take the liquid and add orange juice to make 3 cups. Cook tapioca with the juice over medium heat, stirring frequently until clear white specks appear. Mix 1/4 cup water and Knox gelatin, set aside to bloom for 5 minutes. Add gelatin to pudding mixture and chill for 30 minutes or until partially set. Mix in fruit.
OK, wanted to give you all an update on this. I found out that it's actually a 'dip' of sorts although I'm not sure what you would eat it with. It's Fruit Cocktail, Vanilla Pudding and Cream Cheese. I'm going to make it just to see what it tastes like. Not sure if I want to put that in the middle of a cake. Sounds like it would be too soft. I seem to remember seeing this at a shower somewhere. Live and learn.
