I suppose it could be "orange soda float cake" or "raspberry soda float cake" or whatever. I got this one from my "Just Like Mom Made" cookbook. Here's the recipe.
1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix 1 1/4 cups root beer 1/4 cup vegetable oil 2 eggs 1 (1.3 ounce) envelope whipped topping mix 1/2 cup root beer
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, 1 1/4 cup root beer, oil, and eggs. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl, and beat 4 minutes on medium speed. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool. To make the frosting: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whipped topping mix and 1/2 cup root beer. Beat until soft peaks form. Spread on top of cake.

Cannot wait to try this! We love rootbeer. I used to have a rootbeer cookie recipe that was awesome!
This looks really good!!! What is a whipped topping mix? Where would I find it?
Looks great! I have orange cream soda... I wonder how that would taste. Hmmm...
Kathy...one of the main brands is Dream Whip. I think it's usually sold near the pudding mixes. It's in a small box.
That looks tasty! I love that you can use whatever kind of soda you have.
Oh yum, I've only made 7up cake, the kids would love this.
Very nice! I know my family would love this!
I found a recipe for cupcakes that calls for strawberry soda that I really want to try too.
I love the idea of the root beer float cake - sounds really delicious!
Does it taste like root beer? I think it sounds good. It looks just like the coconut cake I just posted. White cake, white frosting, very different flavor.
Tiffany...it has a little bit of root beer taste.

My 13 year old loves rootbeer floats, I actually think she would love me forever if i surprised her with this! It looks gorgeous!
Ooooh! That is so fun!
OK, I pretty much have to have this right now! I clicked over from "In the Kitchen with the Kennington's" and I'm pretty much hooked now! And guess what? I'm from AZ! Right now, we're living in Iowa for my husband's PhD program, but I miss Phoenix!
that's so cool. I was just thinking the other day if there any recipes that you could add pop to. I was thinking more like Coca Cola but Rootbeer is even better. :)
I can't to try this!!
I've never had cake like this before - it looks and sounds really good.

Have you seen the root beer cookies at Cafe Johnsonia?

Root beer cake yum. I have some root beer extract that I need to use and I bet it would kick this up a notch. I love root beer!

Ingrid...yes I did like it. I think Leslie's idea of adding the extra root beer flavor to give it a boost is a great idea!
That cake looks wonderful!! Definitely a must try! In reference to the Drop In and Decorate comment on my blog, I did not have one in my area, I made one in my area. Just get with Lydia on her site http://www.dropinanddecorate.org and she can tell you everything! Thanks for your comment. Love your blog by the way, I am a follower now LOL

Ooh, I love root beer floats, but I don't like root beer on it's own. Is that weird?
