Preparation Method Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, canola oil, water, and eggs. Beat until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, make the filling. In a medium bowl, combine the Baileys Irish Cream and heavy whipping cream. Beat until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and milk. Beat for 2 minutes, or until thickened. Set aside.
- Once the cake is done, poke holes all over the top with a fork. Pour the Baileys filling into the holes. Spread the pudding evenly over the top of the cake.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Before serving, slice the strawberries and arrange them on top of the cake.

User Comments:
- "This cake is delicious! The combination of strawberries, Baileys, and pudding is perfect."
- "I made this for my husband's birthday and he loved it. It's now his favorite cake."
- "I'm not a big fan of cake, but this one is an exception. It's so moist and flavorful."
Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure to poke the holes in the cake all the way to the bottom so that the filling can penetrate.
- Be careful not to overbeat the Baileys filling or it will become curdled.
- If you don't have Baileys Irish Cream, you can substitute another type of Irish cream liqueur.
- You can also use other types of fruit on top of the cake, such as raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries.
