Fourth of July Red White and Blueberry Strawberry Ice Cream Cake

Hello to all my foodie friends Happy Fourth of July to ya and we cooked this cake for a shoot on Tuesday and am sending it your way today, I had to wait for the pictures to be loaded.  It was a easy cake to make and you can just make a double cake if you wish.  I wanted a tall one of this shoot.  At first I was going to make up a recipe for some Apple Pie Cookies but decided to make a Red, White, and Blue cake instead.  I made the recipe up while we did the shoot so it didn't have a lot of time to set up so it kind of wanted to slip while it was being shot for pictures.  The pictures are done by a great artist named Frankie Guzman he does a lot of shoots and pictures for people you can find him on that thing called face book.  This was a easy cake to make.  You just need to freeze the cakes hard before icing the cake.  Did you know that strawberries are the only fruit that carries its seeds on the outside and that there are like 200 seeds on each strawberry and it got its name they think from them using straw under the runners as it grows.  Any Who this is going to be a short blog and I hope you give this recipe a try.  This cake had a great flavor and is very festive to use.  Good luck with the recipe.
