I am as red as a tomato. We went to the beach for the weekend since we were off on Monday. I was so good to relax and lay on the beach. I came back a wonderful shade of red. Since I didn't get home until about 10 last night I decided to wait until today to make my 4th of July cake. I looked up a few different cute ones. One even had a little firecracker made out of pop rocks! Maybe I will get to that one next year. This year I made the kind that when you cut into it the cake looks like the flag. I haven't cut into mine yet so a google picture will have to do for right now.
I did mine a little different than most of the recipes say. The recipe said to cook one blue cake and one red/white cake. Then you cut the middle out of them both and just swap them so that the red and white middle is in the blue outside. I just poured my red batter in the center and then the blue around the edge so I wouldn't have to make such a mess (or waste a ton of cake). I topped it off with my almond buttercream and some red white and blue sprinkles. I will post some pictures of my actual cake after I take it to my rotations tomorrow (only 3 days left...hooray!)
I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful 4th!
