Yum Yum. Here’s a simple and delicious 4th of July recipe:
- 2 pints of fresh strawberries
- 1 recipe of your favorite white or yellow cake (mix or from scratch, your choice)
- 1 1/3 C of fresh blueberries
- 1 tub of whipped topping:
Serves 12
Mix up and bake your favorite cake mix or recipe. Let cool.
Slice 1 cup of strawberries, set aside. Halve remaining strawberries, set aside.
Top cake (in pan) with 1 cup sliced strawberries, 1 cup blueberries and all of the whipped topping. Arrange remaining strawberry halves and blueberries on whipped topping to create a flag design. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Add a sparkler for a dramatic effect. Enjoy!
I made this for a family get-together after I saw this and it went over big time!

This looks so good right now. I absolutely love July treats. 🙂
ooooh.. this one looks easy to prepare! 🙂 nice idea!
thanks for dropping by my strawberrygurl site 🙂
What a cute idea! I saw something like that with raspberries instead of strawberries in the July issue of Parents magazine! I think it’s such a great idea…it’s very likely I’ll do that if we end up going anywhere for the 4th!
I like the sparkler addition, too.
looks delicious! May have to give it a try as strawberries up here in Maine are plentiful right now. Never thought to add a sparkler though, bet my daughter would love that, thanks for the great idea!
