Easy Patriotic Light Summer Cake with Berries and Cream

The thing about Memorial Day and July fourth, here in the States, is that it's usually warm outside yet we like to have treats with our hamburgers and hot dogs. Sometimes those, "treats" can be too heavy for a warm, summer day. Often people make something "light" to serve their guests.
Here's a simple, fun patriotic cake that is light and delicious yet playful with it's flag like colors, great for any occasion but even more relevant for those patriotic holidays!

You will need:
-a Bundt pan with a hole in the center to hold fruit
-White cake mix (It's usually white)
- (2) packages of Jello mix. One red as in Strawberry and one Blue.
-Cool Whip
-red and blue berries. I am going to use cut up strawberries and blueberries.

Step 1. Baking the cake 
Simply follow the directions for the cake mix. Make sure to bake in a Bundt pan or anything with a circle in the middle to put the fresh fruit in later.

Step 2. Let the cake cool

Step 3. Make and pour the jello

• Follow the directions for the red berry and blue berry Jello mix. Let the liquid cool a bit but don't let it form as jello. 
• Use a THIN instrument to poke holes in the cake. Start from one end and poke a hole, another one an inch away in the direction from the Bundt cake hole towards the edge. 
• Take a spoon and poor some red liquid jello into the holes that are in a row to keep the color consistent.
• Then do the same for the blue liquid jello next to the red, creating a second row and so on until you've gone in a complete circle around the cake
• *Don't over pour.

Step 4. Put the plain cake with the jello inside of it, into the refrigerator so the jello solidifies

Step 5. Wash and cut up fruit (if you're using strawberries you can cut it) or if raspberries, you can leave it whole with the blueberries. Fruit should be red and blue. 

Step 6. Final preparations to cake and then serve

• When the cake has been in the refrigerator long enough and you're ready to serve, put the fruit in the center of the cake
• Spread the Cool Whip on the cake as desired. You can add more fruit on the top if you wish. 
• Keep cool before and after serving. 

Enjoy!!!
