This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. We are throwing a big 4th of July party over at our house and I needed some quick and easy dessert ideas(because my motto lately is to simplify, simplify, and simplify some more to make my life easier :), so I threw this quick and easy party to help you get inspired for the 4th of July! #TwizzlersSummer #CollectiveBias
How to throw an easy 4th of July Party
The backdrop:
- Silver cut-out stars from a party store
- Blue & Red paper lanterns from a party store
- 2 white tablecloths from the dollar store
- Clear fishing lines or strings
- double-sided tape
Using double-sided tape, tape the white table cloth on the wall as the back drop. Lay the other table cloth over the table. Stick the stars on the white wall and using the clear fishing lines or strings, hang the lanterns from the ceiling.
American Flag Cake:
- 1 container of whipped cream
- White cake mix
- 1 bag of Strawberry Twizzlers
- 1/2 c. blueberries(rinsed)
Bake the white cake in a rectangle pan following it’s directions on the box. Spread a layer of whipped cream all over the cake. Using the Strawberry Twizzlers, make stripes, cutting some as necessary to make the stripes fit. On the left top corner, use the blueberries as “stars”.
Basket Holder Cupcakes
- 12 cupcakes
- 1-2 Pull N Peel Red White N Blue
Cut the Pull N Peel Red White N Blue in half or 1/3(the mini cupcakes I cut 1/3), then pull it so it’s one color of each(red, white & blue). Place both ends on either side of the cupcakes and press onto the frosting.
I purchased all the ingredients at Wal Mart, I am sure you’ve seen the Twizzlers Summer Fun aisle if you’ve been there recently.
Now that I’ve shared with you some of my ideas for the 4th of July celebrations, are there any recipes that you make for the Holiday? I’d love to know, please share below!
