4th of July Flag Cake

Flag_CakeThis is my absolute favorite gourmet dessert to make for the 4th of July.  It's really quite simple, it tastes delicious and the kids can help out!

Strawberries and blueberries are abundant this time of year, and made it easy to create the stars and stripes of our grand flag.

Ingredients:

4 cups fresh strawberries

1 pkg.  (12 oz.) frozen prepared pound cake, thawed, cut into 14 slices

1-1/3 cups blueberries, divided

1 tub  (12 oz.) Cool Whip Whipped Topping, thawed

Directions:

1. Slice 1 cup strawberries; halve remaining strawberries.

2. Cover bottom of 13x9-inch dish with cake slices; top with sliced strawberries and 1 cup blueberries. Spread Cool Whip over berries.

3. Arrange strawberry halves and remaining blueberries on COOL WHIP to resemble a US flag. Keep refrigerated.

  • I love this! That is so simple, creative and yummy looking! I really like the idea of keeping it simple and using things that are already "done" and just putting it together into such a patriotic package.

    It's absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
