How to Make an American Flag Cake
Full recipe: preppykitchen.com/flag-cake/
This moist vanilla cake is filed with fresh berries and topped with a light and creamy mascarpone whipped cream. As the weather warms up I find myself gravitation towards lighter cakes and mascarpone whipped cream fulfills that desire in spades! It's basically a more stable form of whipped cream with a hint of cheesecake flavor. I highly recommend making using this frosting for all of your favorite cake and cupcake recipes.
Baking Notes
I used raspberries and blueberries for this cake but you can substitute any of your favorites in. Make sure to cut up larger berries and toss with some flour before folding into the batter.
This cake is LOADED with moisture so it will need to bake for a longer time. Everyone's oven is a bit different so keep an eye on the cake's center. I will use a skewer and the spring test to make sure the cake is not under-baked.
If you want a bit less doming you can fashion your own cake strips wrap them around the edge of the pan. Click here for my full how to on getting flat layers!

I tried this cake yesterday, it was so moist and so delicious that I ever had, the only ingredients I changed was cut half the sugar, his mom is right! 😀 The home-made cake strips really help to keep the sides not so hard and levelling the cake, would like to buy the reusable strips that recommended, more convenient. Would it be able mail to oversea? Thank you for sharing all the tips! 🙏🙏

In the video you say all-purpose but on your website it says to use cake flour. Also, in the video you say 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract but the subtitles say 1 teaspoon. Thanks it is fabulous!!
