Cake Ingredients
- 1 box 15.25 oz White Cake Mix I used Pillsbury brand
- 4 large eggs separated, use the egg whites and set aside the yolks for next use
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup water
- 1 lb strawberry
- 1 lb blueberry
Whipped Cream
- 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
Sweet Cream
- 1 can 14 oz Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 pack 8 oz cream cheese
Instructions
Make the heavy whipping cream
- I often make the whipping cream in advance and store it in the fridge. Attach the wire whisk to the electric stand mixer and add in the heavy whipping cream. Mix on high and add the sugar in three intervals. Mix until stiff peaks. Transfer the cream to a sealed container and refrigerate.
Make the sweet cream
- Using the same electric mixer, add the cream cheese and mix it completely until smooth- there should be no lumps. Add in the condensed milk and mix to try to smoothen lumps. Set aside until ready to use.
Make the flag cake
- Separate the eggs and use the egg whites in this recipe. Place the egg whites in a large bowl. Remove the cake mix from the box and pour it into the bowl. Add the melted butter and water. Mix completely until there are no lumps
- Preheat oven at 350 F.
- Spray nonstick oil in the pan and transfer batter in the pan. Bake cake at preheated oven for twenty minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool down and make holes by poking the cake using a stick. Pour the sweet cream mixture and let the cake sit for an hour. When ready, frost the cake using the whipped cream and smoothen the cream out. Decorate with blueberries and strawberries.
