So simple to do, and so much fun. Easily make several Red, White and Blue Patriotic Treats for your 4th of July Party. Just get yourself a loaf of Angel Food Cake, a star cookie cutter, and some red, and blue fruit. Come on in and I’ll share my simple “how to” on these yummy and fun Patriotic Treats...
This is a fun dessert snack to let the kids get involved in making. They love using the star shaped cookie cutter and loading up the straws with fruit.
Not only is it simple, it’s so much fun.
Display several on a platter or stand them upright in a cylinder filled with rice to hold the straws in place. If you choose to display them upright, simply add a piece of your leftover angel food cake below the strawberry to use as a stopper – just in case the strawberry starts to slip down.
Here’s What You’ll Need to Make Angel Food Cake Sparklers Patriotic Treats…
(this should make about 1 dozen sparklers)
- 1 Angel Food Cake from your local grocer’s bakery
- Star shaped cookie cutter – 2″- 2 & 1/2″ across
- Strawberries – rinsed and dried with the tops cut off
- Blueberries – rinsed and dried
- Fun straws or wooden skewers
Instructions for this Patriotic Treat…
- Slice the angel food cake into about 1/2 inch wide slices
- Place the cookie cutter in the white part of the cake and push down to cut out a white star piece of cake
- Start loading the straws with a strawberry piece and a couple of your plumpest blueberries
- Dry the straw with a napkin before sliding the cake topper on. You don’t want a soggy star
- *If you plan on displaying these upright, slide a piece of angel food cake under the fruit so it will hold them in place
