White Cake Mix: You will likely need some eggs and oil. Just go ahead and prepare this according to the directions on the package.

Blueberries: Fresh blueberries not only bring a delicious flavor but bring in that deep navy blue color so significant to the Fourth of July! Strawberries: These look so gorgeous, and they are slices and all lined up as the stripes on the flag cake. Powdered Sugar: Take this cake above and beyond by dusting it with some powdered sugar! It’s those finishing touches that make it look extra fancy!
