Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Mix according to package instructions until smooth.
  • Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  • Once the cake is cool, spread the whipped cream frosting evenly over the top.
  • Arrange the sliced strawberries in a rectangle on the left side of the cake to form the stripes of the flag.
  • Place the blueberries in the top left corner to create the stars of the flag.
  • If desired, use red and blue food coloring to tint some of the frosting for added decoration.
  • Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired, then slice and serve the cake.

Notes

You can use store-bought frosting or make your own for a fresher taste.
