I believe it became popular around 1957-58 when "Dream Whip" first came out. Dream Whip was much easier to prepare than old fashioned whipped cream and was the fore-runner of Cool Whip. My recipe was saved by my grandmother and I was baking it in the 1960's after I married. Sadly, I lost the original recipe years ago.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4001048742448308736.post-87339293165884913462014-05-28T04:09:10.531-05:002014-05-28T04:09:10.531-05:00I use orange supreme cake mix it's yummyI use orange supreme cake mix it's yummyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4001048742448308736.post-75298780368021058412014-05-27T16:55:31.318-05:002014-05-27T16:55:31.318-05:00this same cake has different names in different st...this same cake has different names in different states...mostly southern states = Alabama and Georgia call it the "Pea Picking Cake" for the family gatherings at harvest times of long ago....I know the North and South Carolinas call it " Pig Picking Cake" for the whole pig roasted in the ground and every one "picks" the meat off the pig when it's done........very yummy and sometimes I do it as a "punchbowl" cake and just spoon it up.

The Pea Picking cake does not have bananas or pecans. I make both cakes and the Pea Picking is a very light tasting cake and does not make you feel so full after a big Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner. The Hummingbird cake is a much richer cake and seems a little too much after a large meal. <br /> Phyllisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4001048742448308736.post-79463868760725406072013-12-18T13:22:03.282-06:002013-12-18T13:22:03.282-06:00I'm a proud Arkansas Razorback :) but have ne...I'm a proud Arkansas Razorback :) but have never heard this cake called anything but "hummingbird cake".
