4th of July cookouts call out for red, white, and blue desserts. I posted an idea a couple weeks ago for a 4th of July Cupcake Flag.
One of my all-time favorites is the 4th of July flag cake made with strawberries and blueberries. Sandy at All Holiday Cafe has links to several versions of the 4th of July flag cake.
If you’re looking for something different, here are 10 more 4th of July red, white, and blue dessert ideas:
- Use a star cupcake pan or mold, to make Jell-O stars in red and blue gelatin.
- Fruit and Yogurt Parfait or Trifle with blueberries and strawberries
- Independence Day Pops
- Instant Red White and Blue Ice Cream Cake
- Red White and Blueberry Cheesecake
- More 4th of July cake and cupcake decorating ideas
- Star Spangled Dessert
- Blueberry Cheese Tarts
- Red White and Blueberry Shortcakes
- Red White and Blueberry Ice Cream Sundaes

Susan, I love this time of year too. I’m a big strawberry and blueberry fan, there’s so much you can do with that combination. It’s the perfect summer, Fourth of July color mix.
Linette, I don’t know how you find all these great recipes and resources. Thank you for making party-planning easier for all of us.
Wow, I found your blog on Hershey’s and was so sorry I didn’t get to submit a recipe.
Great Blog….. you know parties….. we make parties memorable with Awesome Balloon Creations!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the link. I am in continual awe of your baking skills. :-)
I love it that the 4th of July comes just when strawberrry season is winding down and blueberry season is winding up! Love to make the flag cake, or a round one using a cheesecake. Love your ideas!
