Every midwest mom has a different variation of this patriotic dessert. I like the one pictured, using chocolate cake and white icing. The constant in all of the recipes is that a flag is created on the top of the cake using blueberries for the stars and strawberries for the stripes. For some other Flag Cake ideas, see:
- Breyer’s Ice Cream Flag Cake
- Flag Cake with whipped cream from Cooks.com
- The Barefoot Contessa’s Flag Cake from the Food Network
- Flag Cake with Jello and marshmellows from Glenda’s Attic Blog

I love the Breyer’s recipe. Soooo easy.
I like to use raspberries for the red stripes because they’re smaller but my hubby prefers the taste of strawberries. Guess which I use
yum!
