flag cake



The 4th of July is seriously my favorite holiday! I love all the traditional fun activities, and I also love the chance to reflect on how precious our freedom is. Last year I made a flag cake, which my mister is proudly showing you (the top picture is the cake that inspired me). It was great to take to a family party because the outside looks like just a normal white cake, but when you cut into it, tada! Your own taste of freedom. Find full recipe and instructions here, and a video instruction here. One tip: use paste or gel food coloring to get rich colors. The liquid coloring will give you brighter colors, which is fun too, just not as dark as a real flag.
