The Forth of July is honestly one of my favorite time of year when it comes to desserts! Because it's summertime, berries are at their freshest. If it's something like a cake, it seems one of those holidays were people will go all out with their decorating. Also, it's fun to have sparklers and all things shiny on top! Can't wait to check out all of the links .. thank-you for the inspiration!

This is a great roundup! We always celebrate July 4th in a big way so I will have to make one of these awesome recipes! I am thinking Red, White and Blue Fruit Salad, Patriotic Fruit Platter, Patriotic Marshmallow Crunch Brownies all seem like good starts!
ReplyDeleteHi Karissa! Ooooh...Marshmallow Crunch Brownies sounds sooo good! I have to always have my fruit. It's not summer without it! :)

This is an excellent collection. That bundt cake looks very good, though my kids would probably like the cookies the best. I always like making festive desserts to go along with the specific holiday.
ReplyDeleteHi Melanie, I agree. The bundt cake would be my favorite, too! I know my kids would also want the cookies! :)
DeleteHave a great weekend!

We usually have a cookout with family during the Memorial Day weekend. I have never made a red, white and blue dessert but I think I might just start doing that. I think I'll start with the RW&B jello cups.
