American Flag Cake

I have been making the Amercan Flag Cake since my daughter Vera was a little girl.  I let her decorate the cake by herself  and she  was always a hit when she brought the cake to a holiday BBQ.  It’s easy, fun , delish and a really good way to get kids in the kitchen hands on.  Hope you try it!

American Flag Cake

1 pkg cake mix – any flavor
1 (8 oz) container whipped topping
1-2 pint strawberries
1 1/2 cup blueberries

 

Preheat oven to 350 °F.

Grease and flour a 13×9-inch pan
Prepare, bake and cool cake according to package directions.
Frost the sides and top with whipped topping.
Arrange strawberries, blueberries on cake  to create a ‘stars & stripes’ pattern.
Use the blueberries to create a blue background in the upper left hand corner.
Once you have finished decorating the cake, place in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve it.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place cooled cake on top and decorate, carry and serve.  Put any left over fruit around the cake.

 

Have a wonderful summer !
