Ingredients:

Angel food cake

Cool Whip

Blue Jell-O or gelatin

Red Jell-O or gelatin

Strawberries

Blueberries

Get a store bought angel food's cake and slice it into 3 layers and set aside.

Get a large cartoon of cool whip and divide it into 3 equal containers.

Mix the red gelatin into the cool whip and use as a frosting over the first layer of angel food cake. It works best if you allow the 4^th of July cake to chill between layers.

Use the uncolored cool whip to frost the second layer for the middle of the cake and again it is best if you allow it to chill.

The third layer of angel food cake is frosted with the blue gelatin and cool whip and again chilled.

If you would like, you can add sliced strawberries to the red frosting and blueberries to the blue frosting.

The white is the middle layer and you can make the top and bottom layer red or blue and still get a wonderful and colorful Fourth of July cake. If all that is too much trouble just use the cool whip and get some red white and blue sprinkles and decorate the white cool whip angel food cake with that.
