Happy 4th of July to everyone! I know my day will consist of family breakfast, relaxing at the pool, cooking out, and seeing the sky being lit up . Last night i went to a cookout and my family was in charge of bringing the dessert. I knew I wanted to make something patriotic and so I decided to make a cake with a flag on it. I've seen pictures of this kind of cake before, but it was my first time to make it.
