Prepare the baking pan by spraying lightly with oil and dusting with a little of the dry cake mix.

Prepare cake mix according to package directions and bake.

Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Let cool completely and turn out onto the cooling rack.

Whipped Cream Icing
  • 2 c. heavy whipping cream
  • 2 T. confectioners sugar
  • 1 t. vanilla extract

In an electric mixer, with the whip attachment, combine all the ingredients and whip to stiff peaks.

Assembly
  • 1 pt. blueberries, washed
  • 2 pt. of strawberries, washed, hulled and sliced in half or thirds

Slice the cake in half across the middle to make 2 layers. Place one of the layers on a cake stand or serving tray.

Decorate with blueberries and strawberries to resemble “Old Glory”.
