If you don't have the time to make our huge "go-big-or-go-home" July 4th cake, consider the following version, which is much more modest and smaller. These are personal flag cakes. They can be a little challenging to put together, but the hard work will pay off.
Ingredients for mini cakes:
Method of preparing the mini cakes:
-
Prepare the cake following instructions. Make one whole cake and let it cool completely when done.
-
Beat the cream cheese in an electric mixer until it becomes fluffy. With a spatula gently add the beaten cream cheese to the whipped cream.
-
Now cut the cake into small squares. Cut each square in the middle, horizontally, to make 2 layers.
-
Glue the 2 layers back together with some frosting. Once you're done, put the frosting into a piping bag.
-
Draw some horizontal lines on the top of the cakes, and glue on some blueberries at the top left corner of each with frosting.
