Truvy's Cuppa Cuppa Cuppa Cake | Southern Living

Steel Magnolias is a Southern staple, and, obviously, so is Dolly Parton. Truvy's (Dolly Parton's character) Cuppa Cuppa Cuppa Cake is about as easy as it gets. Simply mix together flour, sugar, and fruit cocktail, and bake until golden.

Southern Living celebrates the best of life in the South, both in our content and through publications and programs that enrich the lives of more than 15 million devoted readers.

In 1966, Southern Living was created to highlight the beauty and culture of the growing South.

"I serve it over ice cream to cut the sweetness." 😆

I had a dream about this video, and didn't know this existed.

I might try this with half the sugar lol

What was the size of the dish you put it in?

[antmagor]

Question, can you get away with that if you cut down on the sugar just a bit. I asked because the fruit cocktail has got a lot of sugar coming into the party by way of the syrup it’s packed in.

The original is called the Cuppa Cuppa Cuppa Cake. You made a Cuppa Cuppa Almost Two Cuppa Cake because there’s only eight ounces of fruit cocktail in the original recipe.
