Happy 4th!



Instead of a traditional flag cake to celebrate our nations birthday, I decided to take a little inspiration from some of my favorite summer fruits. This berry flavored cake is frosted in a vanilla pudding coolwhip frosting and covered with berry almond flowers. The flowers are extremely easy and a great way to add a festive touch to your 4th. Just alternate between the red and blue berries you have chosen use and add slivered almonds about the berries to create pedals.

What a great twist on the red white and blue theme. Love the fruit/nut flowers! Make one for us next year!

How did you think of the almond idea?! So smart. Definitely looks like the explosion of fireworks. So cute.
