Hack for ready-made cake mix – one ingredient!

Simple recipes / Cindy Rahe

My birthday is on July 3rd. I always thought the 4th of July fireworks were just for me. And every year ever since I can remember I have a “flag cake” to celebrate: a simple vanilla cake with whipped cream and fresh berries on top so it looks like an American flag. It’s nothing fancy but to me it’s perfect.

The taste of vanilla cake from a packet is so comforting and nostalgic. No matter how hard I try I have never been able to match the taste and texture of homemade cake. That said my preferences have become a little more refined over the years.
